A small museum with two halls, exhibits include archaeological finds and sculptures, a bust of Leonidas. The museum is old and unrenovated, it’s very sad. There isn't even an audio guide. Employees heat the museum using household radiators. But a very beautiful park. You can sit on broken benches, but inside beauty. The service staff is very kind.

Good stop for a very brief visit of Greek artifacts from Sparta. We maybe spent 20-30 minutes here. Interesting plaques and informative signs for the mosaics and statues. Well worth 2€ each for the small size of the museum. We visited in early November.

Very small museum, but the building seems big enough to enlarge it. As Sparta has great history, there are much more to say and present about the history of this area. We went to Arheological museum in Olympia and the presentation of history facts of their area was much better prepared.
I do not reccomend visiting Archeological museum of Sparta as there are much more to see in other museums.

I have no words to describe this place. It is definitely one of my favorite ancient archaeology sites. The views the atmosphere. The energy of this sacred healing space is amazing. You will just have to come and see and feel it for yourself. It is definitely worth a visit and I highly recommend it.

Strange kind of place really. It has quite a few items but many are lacking any kind of useful description as to their origin, their use or their history. It would be much better to provide more such information as well as pictorial graphics of how the items might have been used or how the huge mosaics and marble carvings might have been positioned in or on a building.
If you're a Greek citizen, make sure you show your identity card. Even then, the staff only grudgingly charge you the lower entrance price: not very polite nor helpful.
