Not a lot there to see apart from building and a few artifacts broken pots a few statues,marble stair (steep)case a little bit dangerous no stair rail ,and little overpriced entrance fee.
If you've had your fill of broken statues, cracked pots and painted vases you probably won't find anything new here to whet your appetite. However, the museum is in a lovely old building including a pretty garden and contains finds from the Minoan to the Ottoman and has excellent signage throughout. A good way to spend an hour or more. Entry fee is €6.
If you are an ancient history buff, this place is for you. The oldest artifact I saw was a complete vase dated 980BC. We were there in the off-season, so the internal cafeteria was closed, but still worth the 4Euro entry.
We almost past this museum but decided we should take the time and go inside! Glad we didn't miss this one! The archeological finds were amazingly well preserved! You can almost envision how they were used so many thousands of years ago! Beautiful pottery and statues! Not expensive so take the time to see and enjoy!
Place is huge with many exhibits to see. Would highly recommend if you are into history although the kids might not enjoy it so much!
Really worth a visit. Very atmospheric, well presented and fascinating exhibits. If you have difficulty with walking / balance, take care because obviously it's an old building, and surfaces are not always even, as we discovered!
I will never forget the lovely little statue of Aphrodite bathing . I think it is my favourite greek work of art and we have been to many Greek museums. She is so delicate and life like. The whole museum was well set out and very interesting.
Went to Rhodes museum which was absolutely fantastic, cannot describe the exhilaration of being inside the museum. Seeing where the knights lived and saw some of the tomb stones which are lovely.
Small and not a huge amount to see - but the money for the restoration has to come from somewhere - and what there is to see does evoke memories of times past -
I enjoyed the artifacts but what blew me away was the hospital itself. It still has an atmosphere of deep peace and calm even though the Knights Hospitallers left centuries ago.
