Fantastic local with great information in Greek and English. Has items from the nearby Minoan Palace as well as other important sites. The one staff member was very welcoming and it was free entry. A very nice stop for any walk and explore of this beautiful town. Compliments the bigger in Heraklion. A definite place to visit if you are in Archanes. A small but amazing display of historical artefacts from the area. Highly recommended and even better that it is free! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Small but Nice Little even free entree A very New An amazing place, teaching us the historical civilization of cretan culture and ancient society.... Every one who likes Greece has to visit this place. Easy access, and about 15-20 minutes from the city of Heraklion... A+++++ Ein sehr schönes kleines ohne Eintritt aber dafür sehr lohnenswert. Das enthält Grabbeigaben und minoische Grabgefäße sogenannte Urnen. Diese Funde stammen aus der archäologischen Ausgrabungsstätte Fournier, diese archäologischer Bereich befindet sich 3 Kilometer außerhalb vom Dorf oben auf einem Hügel. Sollte man auch unbedingt besichtigen auch wegen der wunderschönen Natur und Aussicht auf den heiligen Berg der Minoan den Juchtas Some wonderful early to late Minoan, and Roman artifacts. Only €5 entry (for tourist) Small room full of artefacts from the ancient times all from the town. Free entry. Nice place to stop off for 30 mins while in the town. The people in the seemed quite nice and helpful and spoke a little English but if you were keen to learn more they would happily tell you. Museo modesto, pequeño pero muy interesante. Es gratuito y abarca solo una sala, se ve en poco tiempo pero con él te haces una idea de la importancia de la localidad y su entorno durante el periodo Minoico. Se ven piezas muy importantes e interesantes como cerámicas, instrumentos musicales (como el que adjunto en la foto) y sarcófagos y pithois que sirvieron para enterrar a los muertos. Lo recomiendo. This is a small out of the way with great stuff. Well worth the trio. And its FREE. I was very impressed with the design of this museum. The story boards and the range of exhibits were excellent. This is a must visit if you want to learn about the ancient history of Crete. This is a superb, free, of local but world class exhibits from nearby Minoan and Mycenaean sites, in particular the tombs at Phourni. They include coffins and fully preserved skeletons skeletons from 3500 + years ago, superb jewellery (some copies as the originals are in the Heraklion Archaeological Museum), and a representation of the interior of a local shrine where there had been a human sacrifice to ward off an earthquake, it failed, the quake brought the roof down and so the evidence was preserved! Kleines Minoisches mit Interessanten Ausstellungsstücken Tafeln sind auf grischischer und englischer Sprache mit einer Übersetzer App gets dann auch in andern Sprachen bei gutem Empfang. 👍👍Ach und der Eintritt ist frei Informative and short and free a 2 min walk up the street visit tourkogitonia and see from its perimeter the remains of what seems to be another Minoan palace Website change monitoring Monitor any webpage for changes – get instant email alerts when prices drop, new jobs are posted, products come back in stock, or competitors update their sites.
