This handsome old building contains some riveting exhibits, including a plaster cast of the Venus de Milo – the original was likely carved from Parian marble around 100 BC, and was found on Milos by a local farmer in 1820 and now resides in the Louvre in Paris. A perky little herd of tiny bull figurines comes from the Filakopi settlement and dates from 1400 to 1100 BC.
