The outside is beautiful, I thought there would be more icon artwork inside and they don’t have an audio tour. It’s a good museum but has so much more to teach!

Really interesting museum filled with works of art and artefacts from as far back as the 3rd century. It is very spacious inside and very calm. Everything is again written in both Greek and English. Tickets were only 4euros and there are free lockers to store your things.

Truly spectacular museum, it has a vast collection of religious works of art, paintings, writings, manuscripts, statues, sculptures, artifacts, busts and much more. It’s very educational, informative and interesting. It’s very well laid out, preserved and displayed. It’s a very special museum, I really enjoyed my time here and would definitely love to come back someday. I would highly recommend checking out this lovely museum.

One of the most important museums in Athens - the wonderful collection of Byzantine and Christian art is beautifully presented in this spacious and extensive building. Complete your visit with a coffee or snack in the outdoor/indoor bistro/cafe set in the relaxing gardens of Villa Illisia. The museum shop has many interesting books and items on display at reasonable prices.

The museum is connected to the Lyceum of Aristotle and there’s a nice garden as well. The tickets are sold separately though. Wide selection of artefacts on display. It is quite extensive, and there’s really a lot to read and see. Would probably take a lot of time if one were to read in details, but glancing through the exhibits lightly was sufficient in our view.
