Om
Raske fakta: Huser mer enn 300.000 gjenstander som dekker 2000 år av Makedonias historie. Blant dem finnes den berømte Gullkransen fra Vergina, en imponerende gullkrans som veier 714 gram.
Høydepunkter: Den mest imponerende utstillingen er Gullkransen fra Vergina, en detaljrik krans av rent gull som ble funnet i Filip IIs grav. Besøkende blir målløse foran gull olivbladene som ser ut til å vaie som ekte, til tross for de 2300 årene som har gått.
Insidertips
- Do not miss the hall with the mosaic floors from Pella: the ancient designs with griffins and dolphins are unique.
- Avoid weekend afternoons, when school groups fill the galleries.
- Wear comfortable shoes: the museum has two floors and the galleries are large.
- The museum cafeteria serves good coffee and has a courtyard overlooking the garden, ideal for a break.
