★★★★★10 months agoGreat little museum... beautiful collection. Friendly staff. No entry fee. Enter from the Town Square and it is clearly marked. Wheel chair access provided to second floor.

★★★★★a year agoPart of this rich private collection is housed in the municipality building on the first floor. Entrance is free and the very friendly guard has plenty of stories to tell. A concise presentation of Minoan culture with a few unique finds.
