Myrtos’ Museum

TIME : 2016/2/18 18:56:58

Myrtos’ small museum houses the private collection of a former teacher who sparked the archaeological digs in the area after finding Minoan artefacts on field trips with students. The collection includes Vasiliki pottery from the nearby Minoan sites of Fournou-Korifi and Pyrgos as well as an impressive model of the Fournou-Korifi site exactly as it was found, with all the pots and items in situ.
