    A very good museum with lots to see and read. The 4 Euros entrance fee is a bit more expensive than some of the other museums but you can see the quality so worth it.  more »
  • By OverLH
    We loved this little museum which had so many interesting artefacts. The displays showed local everyday life of the past, including fascinating stories of Greek resistance during WW2.  more »
