Archaeological Museum of Thessaloniki

Museum4.7 · 9 1834.6 · 1 549≈ 2 hEntry: ~10 €

The top museum of ancient Macedonia, open since 1962 in a modernist building by Patroklos Karantinos. Highlights include the Derveni krater — a 4th-century BC bronze vessel with reliefs on the cult of Dionysus — the gold from Sindos, classical and Hellenistic sculpture, and grave stelae from across the region. It pairs naturally with the Byzantine museum next door, and its halls are a refuge from midday heat.

Highlights

  • The Derveni krater in bronze
  • The gold of Sindos
