    If you are a Navy geek and love ships of all kinds this is the right stop. The people there even give you a book with detailed information about the boats

  • 5/5 ΑΝΑΣΤΑΣΙΟΣ �. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) A real gem for Chios, this museum is housed in a very beautiful renovated two-storey neoclassical mansion. There you can see ship models, paintings, ship logs, naval instruments, diplomas, books and many items related to the maritime profession and the rich history of the island. The museum staff is very kind. Someone who will be in Chios, is worth visiting. (Original) Ένα πραγματικό στολίδι για την Χίο το συγκεκριμένο μουσείο που στεγάζεται σε ένα πολύ όμορφο ανακαινισμένο διώροφο νεοκλασικό αρχοντικό. Εκεί μπορείς να δεις ομοιώματα πλοίων, ζωγραφικούς πίνακες, ημερολόγια πλοίων, ναυτικά όργανα, διπλώματα, βιβλία και πολλά αντικείμενα που έχουν σχέση με το ναυτικό επάγγελμα και την πλούσια ιστορία του νησιού. Το προσωπικό του μουσείου είναι πάρα πολύ ευγενικό. Κάποιος που θα βρεθεί στην Χίο, αξίζει να το επισκεφτεί.

  • 5/5 Visit C. 6 years ago on Google
    The Chios Maritime Museum is housed in a traditional mansion of the town centre, property of the late Anastasios and Marouko Patera. The people of Chios have a long contribution to maritime and commerce.The Museum’s basic aim is to present in the best way, this very important partof this island's life. It does so through the collection of objects and data connected to Chios maritime tradition, as well as to the evolution of maritime and commercial shipping in general.

    Great museum in a small island. If you are interested in ship modelling, you have to visit this one. I hope one day Çeşme will have a maritime museum.

  • 1/5 Stella M. 5 years ago on Google
    We wanted to visit the museum and it is closed on weekends. Does this make sense? We are here for a few days and leave on Sunday. So we will miss it and I suppose many other visitors will miss it. If it was private?

  • 4/5 Jean B. 1 year ago on Google
    We loved the atmosphere in this traditional museum which is clearly looked after with love. Even if you think maritime history might be dull, in every room there is an exhibit or two that catches your interest. Add to that the opportunity to see the beautifully restored house and you'll have a fascinating experience.

  • 4/5 Zacharoula V. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Linked to the history of the place. The naval tradition of Chios has left its markings on the island and the residents indelibly. It is worth a visit, yet I would say that Oinousses is more beautiful. (Original) Συνυφασμένο με την ιστορία του τόπου. Η ναυτική παράδοση της Χίου έχει αφήσει ανεξίτηλα τα σημάδια της στο νησί και τους κατοίκους. Αξίζει μια επίσκεψη, παρόλα αυτά θα έλεγα ότι το αντίστοιχο των Οινουσσών είναι πιο όμορφο.
