Hakkında
Hızlı bilgiler: It houses more than 300,000 exhibits covering 2,000 years of Macedonian history. Among them is the famous Gold Wreath of Vergina, an impressive golden wreath weighing 714 grams.
Öne çıkanlar: The most impressive exhibit is the Gold Wreath of Vergina, a finely crafted wreath made of pure gold found in the tomb of Philip II. Visitors are left speechless before the gold olive leaves that seem to sway as if real, despite the 2,300 years that have passed.
