One of the most fascinating museums I have visited. The Ancients Greeks were amazing inventors and scholars — scientists, mathematicians, astronomers, and so much more. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit with interesting write ups, interactive features, and some videos to explain concepts. Who knew they invented the first laptop in 3rd century BC?! Staff was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the ancient technology. Don’t miss it when in Athens.

I never thought museum can be so fun and interractive. This museum is just amazing especially compared to more traditional museums laying around Acropolis. It has several big rooms there you can enjoy some ancient technology which you can not believe people could have more than two thousands years ago. Museum is very modern. For example every exhibit has a monitor there you can see technology in action! Also every exhibit has interesting and friendly written explanation or story near it. Personnel were so great and so friendly! You can ask and they will show you how some of the exhibits works in front of your eyes. Also museum have room with ancient greek armors and exhibit of ancient greek music instruments, some of them you can even touch and play on them yourself. This is my favourite museum in all Athens and I can strongly recommend everyone to visit it.

This is a must see for anyone interested in ancient and recent technology and in anyone interested in ancient Greece. Definitely recommend. There is even an interactive tour with an explanation of how the things worked. The staff is very welcoming, kind and professional. There are some famous and some less known inventions. It doesn't cover everything but it's definitely worth the time and money. I sincerely hope the museum will grow over time. Thanks for the wonderful experience.

We had an amazing time at this museum ! It was both fun and educational, providing a fantastic blend of history and hands-on experiences. The interactive exhibits and games were a highlight, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the fascinating world of ancient Greek innovation. the museum guides are knowledgeable, offering clear explanations and captivating demonstrations. Their passion for the subject matter was contagious, making the visit unforgettable. It strikes a perfect balance between learning and having fun, making it an unforgettable experience for visitors of all ages.

An absolutely amazing experience. This is exactly how a science/engineering museum should be run. The staff were enthusiastic to demonstrate how the devices work and were able to answer all the questions asked. There were exhibits that you could interacted with, which really showed how they worked. This is the perfect place to visit for anyone scientifically/engineering/mathematically inclined. It is great for children of all ages too.

This is a super cool, interactive style museum that should not be missed! A bit further out to get to, but worth it. This museum covers musical instruments, ancient board games which are precursors to those still played today, weaponry, scientific achievements with hydraulics, medical equipment still in use today etc. It’s a really fascinating glimpse into an ancient culture that valued scientific discovery and laid the foundations (in the West) for future developments and discoveries.

Museums like this are amazing and give you a real insight in to Ancient Greece and it’s incredible technology. This is a must do when in Athens as sometimes certain tours don’t go into detail about each bit of advancement and technology. Loads of hands on activities and video representations and staff are very friendly and willing to answer questions!

Totally worth €10 for all three exhibits and I learned a lot. Because it was a weekday, one of the employees led us through the entire museum as a guided tour. So cool!

I just left this wonderful museum and if you have a couple hours to spare you should definitely check it out. The staff were really friendly and went out of their way to explain to me everything about each and every exhibit. As for the exhibit some selves they were amazing. I am not surprised whatsoever that this museum got nominated as one of the best in Europe. Interactive museums such as these are really fun, interesting, and informative.

Very interesting museum. Spent well over an hour here. Irene was my guide and showed me the really cool technologies the ancient Greeks had. They had stuff that would be lost to history for 1000s of years. Museum was €9 for all the sections.

Amazing museum. It is small but you can find lots of really interesting ancient mechanisms. Best of all is you can interact with them. We spent more than 2 hours touching and playing with all the artifacts all fascinating. Special mention to Dimitri. Although it wasn't a guided tour, he showed and explained us many of the devices. He is really an expert, he knows perfectly all the mechanisms and its history. I highly recommend to visit this museum.

Probably the best museum in Athens, you pay 10 euros, but it's worth it. You can explore with interactive models and with the help of guides the ancient Greek technologies and the incredible advancement of that society. I loved the armour exhibition.

We enjoyed this museum experience and would recommend to visit it for everyone. Very friendly staff, rich exhibition, a lot of interesting scientific engineering examples from Ancient Greek times. Some exhibits have interactive demonstrations. Museum is small enough but it’s definitely worth visiting.

Very interesting, hands on, and informative for both adults and my 16 year old. The staff was very polite and explained several parts of the exhibition, almost like a free private tour!

Interesting exibitions of ancient Greek technologies such as robotics, measurements, telegram and astronomy, etc. while a size of facility is limited. I believe you'll be surprised to know a lot of technologies were invented more than 2000 years ago.

I am glad that I visited this very exciting museum at the heart of Athens. It was a great experience and worth every penny (€12 euros for full entry). I was lucky enough to attend their morning tour of the Ancient Greek Technologies found in the museum (including their musical instruments). The tour guides were great: one of them was the son of the owner of the museum who had great knowledge of the exhibitions and was very good and the other one was a very friendly and lovely young woman who was very passionate about the musical instruments and the exhibitions. Also, you could tell the owner did a lifetime's work to bring that museum into life. Here, you can learn a lot about how the ancient Greeks applied engineering, mathematics etc in order to create tools such as alarms, door bells, tools for lifting heavy stones etc. Although it is a bit small/cosy, the amount of things exhibited and explained is great! They explain next to each creation what it is and how it works and also have screens which do the same. In addition, they have some "board" games which ancient Greeks used to play. Finally, at the top of the floor there was an (honorary, I guess) exhibition of Nikola Tesla's works which was very informative about his inventions (was stunned to learn he even invented wireless transfer of electricity and radio signals). The staff in this section were also very friendly and helpful! One of the most exciting museums I have been to despite its small size! Definitely recommended.

This museum contains several inventions by the ancient Greeks who helped create all these magnificent temples. Even in the museum we can see some representations to get an idea of ​​the exhibits. So those who want to admire these unique inventions should definitely visit it

(Translated by Google) It is worth visiting. I suggest you choose the tour, the difference is big. (Original) Αξίζει να το επισκεφτεί κανείς. Προτείνω να επιλέξετε την ξενάγηση, η διαφορά είναι μεγάλη.

MUST VISIT - The perfect museum for any tourist or local. Curated with many interactive reconstructed autonomous machines that will blow you away. The staff are are wonderful and eager to help you in any way. It isn’t a big museum but many visitors find themselves spending over 2 hours there, as every exhibit and piece of information is fascinating.

(Translated by Google) Wonderful museum! So different! The report on electricity is even more wonderful! It is worth visiting for sure! (Original) Υπεροχο μουσειο! Τοσο διαφορετικο! Η εκθεση για τον ηλεκτρισμο, ειναι ακομα ποιο υπεροχη! Αξιζει να το επισκευτειτε σιγουρα!

Museum of Ancient Greek Technology Kotsanas - The photos are taken on September 2022. It is pretty good museum to visit and enjoy your time to see how technology developed and give some ideas to your personal projects. We almost spent 2-3 hours in the museum even though it looks small. There are many things to look at and learn. There are museum members who explains everything with small shows and presentations. It makes more attractive to first time visitors. At the end of the visit, they give you a small game as a gift.

It was a really nice experience. In my opinion, go only for the ground floor €5. There are 3 sections €5/each and if you combine them all is €12 and if you take a ticket for two the price is €8. Music instruments are on the top floor, technological inventions are on the ground floor and armours are on the lower ground. You can see some interesting inventions like the first alarm and how they work back then.

Amazing museum, extremely friendly stuff, here you can receive all the knowledge about Greek inventions , try by yourself how they function. You can also see the oldest musical instruments, inventions used in army and daily life and be surprised by different facts 🤩 Also you can purchase books in different languages so the knowledge you obtained will stay with you.

An amazing experience! You can interactive with the most of the exhibits! Fun and educational, shows the genius of the ancient Greeks! Congratulations to Mr Kotsanas and all the team! I should also mention the kindness of the museum guides and staff!

Unique exhibits, nicely displayed, and very friendly staff that will gladly explain how the various mechanisms work. The museum has interactive exhibits. It is a special treat for people interested in technology and engineering. When I visited there was a special exhibition on ancient Greek musical instruments that was also very interesting.

This time my trip to Athens left the impression on me the museum of Ancient Greek Technology. May be some people think that museums are not very interesting, but I think quite the opposite. When you visit a museum, the gates to the temple of ancient times and art open for you. I was impressed by the unique creations of the human mind and their hands. I advise everyone to visit this museum for both adults and children (the children will discover where the origin of computers and other games came from), because it intellectually enriches your inner world, broadens your horizons, introduces you to the beautiful, allows you to experience involvement in the world and time. To my l pleasant surprise, the guides are very young. They did their work (especially Dimitris) with such love and enthusiasm, that they left a huge impression on me.

Absolute gem of a museum for science and engineering enthusiasts. Followed an Ad on the metro system to visit this fascinating museum. Entry was 10 Euros (winter) for all 3 exhibitions (main exhibition, music and armour). The exhibits are recreations from historical texts. Some may scoff at this but it brings the ancient inventions to life in a way that is rare to find in other museums. For people lacking in a heavy science background or whose first language isn't English it can be difficult to follow and imagine how the inventions work based on the display and descriptions alone. However, there are multiple interactive exhibitions. Benoit was very helpful in showing us how a number of the inventions worked and explaining the background! The staff are very warm and open to questions. The exhibitions are very heavy in information and you can easily spend 3hrs+ if you go through the majority of exhibitions. Highlights include: the Automaton, Pythagoras' cup, Plato's alarm clock, the door alarm and message/signal systems

Small but brilliant technological museum. If you are an engineer of any description this is a "must see" museum. Ancient Greek technology was amazing, including many astronomical, mechanical, signalling and encryption inventions. All the exhibits are beautifully illustrated and explained in Greek and English.

Very happy we went there. Exceeded our expectations. Not too big, but most of the artifacts are interactive. The young people working at the desk were very happy to guide us and explain the various artifacts. Going through this museum you realize how close the ancient Greeks came to discovering the steam engine and how close we were to having the industrial revolution two millennia before it actually happened.

It's a guided tour for 3,50 for students per exhibition. All ancient technologys and how it's implemented today. It takes up to 30-45 minutes with proper explanation. It was really cool. I'd say a must do/see when visiting Athens for culture.

Wonderful museum, staff is very attentive and helpful, they are eager to show everything and tell how the exhibits work. Very interactive. What a refreshment after all those dull museums with grannies who don’t do anything else except for shouting at you when you touch something...

Very interesting and well built museum. And the crew is simply wonderful.

This is an amazing place and a real hidden gem in the heart of Athens. Working models of ancient Greek technology, described by guides, give great insights to how smart they really were.

A small and pretty museum in the center of the city. The entrance ticket is pretty expensive but it will definitely be worth every penny! The best thing is that most of the exhibits are interactive and, be assured that they will blow your mind! If you are lucky when you visit you may encounter small exhibitions like an exhibition about Nicola Tesla’s inventions and they are all interactive!!! You will leave the place with a big smile on your face!!

Very interesting exhibitions. Great guides included!

Congratulations! I am very impressed! Very interesting exhibition and very friendly stuff!

Pleasant trip back to childhood - a physicists

Ein schönes privates Museum, mit viel Liebe eingerichtet. Fast jedes Ausstellungsstück kann hier "benutzt" werden und man wird von sehr freundlichen Mitarbeitern durch das Museum geführt und bekommt alles erklärt.

(Translated by Google) Remarkable!!!! (Original) Αξιόλογο!!!!

I tried this museum after our tour guide at the Athens Free Walking Tour recommended it to us. And I sure did not get disappointed! What made the visit to the museum so wonderful are the museum guides. I think with the explanations about the technology alone, I might have felt a bit lost, but thanks to their explanations it was great. Also, I was guided through the armory exhibition, for which the same applied: thanks to all the explanations, the exhibits were filled with life and I can't wait to dive deeper into the history of Agamemnon or Alexander the Great. Many thanks for this great experience on my last day in Athens!

It's worth visiting! The exhibition about the ancient Greek technology will definitely surprise you! We were lucky to also visit the temporary exhibition about Nicola Tesla. You can use many of the replicas, so the tour gets more interactive! The tour guides are friendly and helpful!

(Translated by Google) Exciting, interactive and very informative! These Greeks are still very strong! Visit with a guide, where children can test some machines ... Very well done! (Original) Passionnant, interactif et très instructif ! Ces grecs quand-même ils sont très fort ! Visite avec un guide, où les enfants peuvent tester certaines machines... Très bien fait !

I was not expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised. The tour guides are splendid, heartwarming, and informative. I will have so many good memories thanks to them. <3

I really enjoyed the whole experience.Sotiris, who works at the museum as a guide-interpreter, did perfectly his task and explained me everything in detail. I highly recommend everyone to go and learn about ancient Greek technology. The building was clean and perfectly organised. They provide gloves and hydroalcoholic gel to protect yourself from Covid-19. All in all, a beautiful journey through history.

(Translated by Google) Great museum that changes old stones. Impressive collection of technology from ancient Greece. Some are explained by a guide, and are interactive. Located in Kolonaki, so nice area for shopping afterwards. To do ! (Original) Super musée qui change des vieilles pierres. Impressionnante collection de technologie de la Grèce ancienne. Certaines sont expliquées par un guide, et sont interactives. Situé dans Kolonaki, donc quartier sympa pour le shopping après. A faire !

Wonderful place to learn some ancient Greek technology and also some temporary exhibits (Tesla in our case). Tour with the guide was very well explained and a lot of things to do. Very different from what I did in the past. Perfect technology. I really recommand the museum for adults.

Really nice exhibitions and good tour guide！！！

amezing place to get inspired

(Translated by Google) Very interesting, very good accompaniment and explanations. (Original) Sehr interessant, sehr gute begleitung und erklärungen.

(Translated by Google) You have 2 hours left, rush to this museum to discover impressive inventions from an ancient era. The visits are inexpensive and with commentary. (Original) Il vous reste 2 heures, précipitez vous dans ce musè pour découvrir des inventions impressionnantes d'une époque antique les visites sont peu chères et commentées.

(Translated by Google) A very interesting and well organized museum! Young and kind staff. Recommended for adults and children! (Original) Un museo interessantissimo e ben organizzato! Personale giovane e gentile. Consigliato ad adulti e bambini!

A surprising museum. It allows to understand which technology was available more than 2000 years ago. Greek inventors of that time were awesome.

(Translated by Google) very interesting tour and the guides explained it very well (in English) (Original) πολύ ενδιαφέρον τουρ και οι ξεναγοί τα εξήγησαν πολύ καλά (στα αγγλικά)

Such a great museum. Definitely worth a visit!!

The employees where really friendly and the exhibition interesting!

We really enjoyed this wonderful museum!! The staff is very competent and super kind. Definitely worth a visit. If you are interested in science or generally open minded it is the perfect place to be!

(Translated by Google) Myst be on your visiting museums lists when in Athens! Great choice for kids and adults! (Original) Myst be on your visiting museums lists when in Athens! Εξαιρετική επιλογή για παιδιά και μεγάλους!

(Translated by Google) Wonderful achievements of ancient technology that the Europeans needed more than 1500 years to make. (Original) ΥΠΕΡΟΧΑ ΕΠΙΤΕΥΜΑΤΑ ΤΗΣ ΑΡΧΑΙΑΣ ΤΕΧΝΟΛΟΓΙΑΣ ΚΑΤΙ ΠΟΥ ΟΙ ΕΥΡΩΠΑΊΟΙ ΧΡΕΙΆΣΤΗΚΕ ΠΑΝΩ ΑΠΟ 1500 ΧΡΟΝΙΑ ΓΙΑ ΝΑ ΤΑ ΦΤΙΑΞΟΥΝ.

Although placed in building with limited space and small rooms, the museum is still interesting place for visit. With small ammount of entrance fee, you will able to see quite a number of ancient Greece inventions, from more simple ones, to more complex invention, like world first computer piece (the Antikythera mechanisem), which is still on certain level incredible for modern science, as at that time it should not exist for another 1.500 years. The museum is present in two levels, with stairs on more spots as only option, so its secrets are unfortunately not accessible for people with disabilities. In general, quite interesting visit, but must see place only for those who otherwise love technology, and for those who wish to find more about ancient Greeks inventions.

(Translated by Google) Excellent!!! Worth a visit. Of course it is advisable to contact in advance to book a tour. It is different to read something that some might not understand and on the other with the tour everything is perceived (Original) Εξαιρετικό!!! Αξίζει να το επισκεφτείτε. Βέβαια καλό θα ήταν να επικοινωνήσετε εκ των προτέρων για να κλείσετε ξεναγό. Είναι διαφορετικό να διαβάζετε κάτι, που ίσως σε κάποιους να μην είναι κατανοητό και από την άλλη με την ξενάγηση όλα γίνονται αντιληπτα

(Translated by Google) Perhaps the most valuable benchmark of Greek greatness ... spread it to the scientific community give ideas a look back if you want to move forward (Original) Ίσως το αξιολογοτερο σημείο αναφοράς του ελληνικού μεγαλείου...διαδώστε το στην επιστημονική κοινότητα δώστε ιδέες κοιτάτε πίσω αν θέλετε να πάμε μπροστά

Avva Maria and staff were more than delightful. They went above and beyond to show us a great time and stimulate our minds with knowledge of the old that has helped the world transform into the new. Walk in with an open mind and open ears - be ready to learn and appreciate. Ask about the family package!

A truely amazing experience visiting this museum. This is definitely a place to visit! The staff is great! Highly recommended!

The people here are amazing. Extremely attentive and willing to take their time to show you everything. As you tour the museum they not only give you time to explore but they demonstrate and explain how all the mechanisms work. The armor was more interesting to my husband but I really enjoyed the musical instruments. Spent 1.5 hours there. Worth your time if you enjoy inventions, astronomical calendars, communication devices, armor and musical instruments. Near Parliament, and metro.

A must visit for anyone interested in ancient Greek history. The interactive machines along with the kind staff will make sure that you’ll learn many fascinating facts about ancient technology.

Awesome museum, one of its kind. If you have time, do visit it, you won't regret a single minute. Guides do their job really good, Ive spent 3 hours there and didn't notice.

Best spent 5 euros ever. The museum has several exhibitions. We took only the main one. It is very nice because everything is explained interactively. There were several persons at each exhibit and explained the mechanisms and the history behind it. Great place to go if you like museums. Also good for children.

A really, really interesting small museum. Even though it is small, I spent almost two hours there because it is extremely interesting. The staff is really helpful and friendly, and explains everything very well. It is enlightening, surprising and fun. I highly recommend this museum.

This is a great place, probably the thing I liked the most in Athens. Lots of very interesting information and displays about technology—clocks, weapons, gadgets, and more. In addition, there are guides who show you around, I'm pretty sure free and optional, who were very very helpful and nice and make the experience much more informative and fun than a normal museum. One of the best museums I've ever been to.

A relatively small museum, but packed full of amazing innovations from 1000-2500 years ago. Friendly staff, who explain every device, some of which you can use yourself to see how they work. Recommended

A small but personable museum. There are history students that guide through all the displays at no extra cost. It’s quite remarkable what the ancient people of Greece invented. Great place if you’re into history, engineering, physics and mathematics.

This was fun! I bought the book about it to bring home and share. The pulley system used to move all those songs and marble. And the first automatic door!

The guide Dimitri was very kind, helpfull and knowledgable. The museum was very interesting and interactive. We played interesting old kind of game.

In Athens sightseeing? then do not miss this place. We were given very interesting explanation about several of the exhibits. You realise easily how the world 2k years back was far. unfortunately "we" had to wait another centuries to re-discover the inventions paused by religions..

Extremely interesting museum of technology, especially for kids over 10 years. A lot of working mechanisms to try and very friendly staff, who explains a lot of the mechanisms. We got an remake of the ancient game when we left. Totally recommend!

Athens isn't only Acropolis or some sculptures. There is hosting scientist-men and who invented most useful technological stuffs in here. So, you should to visit this place. Anyway this museum is 5 euros but everything is worth it. If you want to see warrior's shield, cloths etc. you should pay 2 euros too.

Extremely interesting museum and knowledgeable staff that were very helpful. Interactive models and displays really help with understanding creating a thoroughly enjoyable couple of hours and very reasonable souvenirs too 😃

Great museum with 3 exebitions at one location, for all ages! Had a great time (we are a couple , 30 years old) , the staff is so nice and full of knowledge and patience. amazing attraction in Athens! Recommended for all

One of my favorite museums in the world. A great place to learn Ancient Greek lifestyle and wisdom. Besides, the staff was super friendly and knowledgeable! 💛🧡

It is a perfect museum for those who learn in an interactive way and don't like long visits. Staff is amazing and keen to explain what the exhibition is about. You can read all the info on the cards adjacent to the item, but it's somehow more interesting when it's presented by a person. If Maria happens to be there when you visit, ask her to show you around. Our experience would be great anw, but because of her- it was awesome! It looks like a place that would be particularly appealing to children, but my husband and I loved it. I would definitely recommend

By far the most interactive museum we've visited. The museum staff was knowledgeable and passionate about all the technological marvels they displayed. We even got a free tour and demonstration by one of the staff members. Special thanks to Dimitri for showing us around :) . Definitely worth a visit!

The Museum of Ancient Greek Technology was really an eye-opener to me. When I was young, I learnt a lot about the great Greek scientists, engineers and mathematicians such as Archimedes and Pythagoras. I really admire their ingenuity and what they achieved more than 2000 years ago. But this museum told me what I knew before is just the tip of an iceberg. You can easily spend a whole day here because they built a lot of workable models, illustrative videos, comprehensive diagrams and interesting games that you can hardly find in other prestigious museums such as the Archaeological Museum and Acropolis Museum. You can also try and touch most of the exhibits there but you cannot do this in those big museums. The staff there are very friendly and helpful, especially Dimitris. He is very knowledgeable and is always ready to explain the technology in detail. He let me understand much more about various ancient Greek technology. When compared to the famous museums, the staff there just watch you for disallowed behaviour but not be there to help you understand the displays. If you are in Athens, especially when you are near Lycabettus Hill, don't miss this wonderful museum!!

Very interesting exhibition about ancient Greek inventions. It is not a big museum but we have spend 2,5 hrs watching and understanding the inventions and entertaining. The staff is amazing, they are very kind disponable and enthusiastic giving interesting explanations. It worth it!

A museum dedicated to ancient greek technology. Robots, automatic machines, surgery tools, communication codes, solar clocks, military and naval prototypes, etc.. There's also a temporary exhibition with greek armory from the ages of Agamemnon until the late Byzantine era.

Very interesting and interactive museum. Staff were very kind and willing to explain the inventions. Special thanks to Sophia and Dimitri!

Private museum of ancient technology. Replicas of different innovations, musical instruments and armour. Some tech items and armour rather speculative and based on guesswork. Basic explanatory texts. Recordings of ancient musical instrument replicas. Rather limited in size. No cafeteria, small souvenier desk. Guides giving basic explanations.

This is the smallest museum we've been to in Athens but its our favourite one yet! If you are interested in ancient greek technology, this place is a must-visit! The staff also took the initiative to introduce the different inventions. It was such a delightful, interactive and fun museum experience. Nerds like me will like this place more than the Acropolis museum.

This museum was fantastic. We spent 1-2 hours. There are many guides (free!) who walk you though the displays of the Ancient Greek technologies, and then you can read about them on the walls (very detailed) and watch provided videos or live demonstrations of early security systems, doorbells, magically opening doors, Archimedes screw, etc. There are also Ancient Greek games to play. I purchased the Ostomachion of Archimedes (the first puzzle and tangram) - the hard plastic version, and it went through airport security at 4 different airports in carry-on luggage, with no issues. I’m not sure the same would be true for the gorgeous metal version of the game!

Amazing museum to learn about ancient greek technology. Really interactive where you can touch and try the equipment for yourself. There is a lot to read but do not fret as the staff are more than happy to show and explain the exhibits and there are many videos and diagrams showing how things worked. We also really enjoyed the music exhibit even though it was much smaller.

interesting site about Greek technogy. There are many places where you can try inventions yourself. However, some objects cannot be touched, which confuses children and causes stress for parents. It is best to enclose untouchable objects with a fence or under glass, rather than following children around and telling them what not to touch.

The best museum I have ever visited! If you come to Athens you must come to this museum! The staff is very nice and I like the way they display the objects inside. It is interactive so it’s about learning and having fun.

The museum is not so big, and in summer time it’s quite hot inside. Inside you’ll see many greek inventions, but the girls who are there can present you the story behind each invention, really cool.

Fun and educational place to spend the morning with the family in Athens. Interesting and interactive. Many games and models to show you how the technology worked in Ancient Greece. Museum guides are very helpful with explanations and demonstrations.

Excellent museum! A hidden gem. Well worth the 5€. Their guides demonstrate old Greek technology. Learn where doorbells, alarm clocks, gears and cranes came from. It is fascinating!

A wonderful museum with very friendly people, who will explain you the equipment, if you want. "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." A.C. Clarke's 3rd law. This museum is magic.

Small, but very interesting. Book a guided tour, as they give great explanations and show various demonstrations. It's amazing the technology the Greeks had thousands of years ago, and you can recognise how it's been carried forward into modern life. Armoury and music exhibitions are ok additions, but not sure if they are worth the extra price.

Join the excellent guides of this unique museum and enjoy learning how genius were the Greeks in finding solutions to real everyday life problems. Recommended for qurious families too(kids from 5 and up).

The museum has great inventions from ancient Greece, as well as ancient musical instruments. Except for the visual explanations at each exhibit, there are free guides that explain everything in detail. Some of the inventions are also interactive. You leave with a free gift at the end.
