The Leros War Museum is worth visiting when you visit Leros. The outer area of the museum is not that attractive. It has a collection of old (but not WWII) army vehicles and a F104 plane. The inside of the museum is located in the old Italian build tunnels that was used before and during WWII as ammunition storage. The whole environment, humidity, lighting and audio footage tries to travel the visitor back in time and does a good job! The exhibits are interesting, original and tied to the the island history. You will find Italian items that are pre-WWII since Leros was an Italian naval base during the Italo-Turkish War. At the end of one tunnel there is a area that show a interesting short film of the Battle of Leros, that lead to the capture of Leros by the Germans. In the entrance there is a TV showing the video of the hauling out of a Junkers 88 from the Ag. Marina Port. The guide of the museum mentioned that they found personal items of the pilot that was given to his family. The plane is in Athens for restoration. I believe that returning this plane to the Leros War Museum will increase the value of this museum by far.

In the tunnels where people were hiding during periods of the second world war we got a very good idea of what had been going on and what life had been then. Absolute worth a visit.

The war in Greece has been well recorded where it happened in Crete, events elsewhere are less well known. The whole of the Dodecanese has its own story and this splendid museum on the north shore of Lakki bay tell the story of this island. Housed in a complex of artillery tunnels is an emotional collection of personal items which will leave you better informed about local, recent history. Don't miss the splendid video made up from archive footage.Now go to the Commonwealth War Cemetery in Alinda.

Have you ever been to a world war two-museum? Well, then you've been to this one too... It's more humid than any museum I've ever been to, as the museum is located in underground tunnels, but the artifacts are about the same as they have everywhere else. Someone has made a short film about "the battle of leros", but it is in greek (english subtitles) and not very good.

An amazing WW2 museium in a tunnel, weapons, uniforms, pictures and a projection hall where you can watch a documentary about the battle of Leros

War museums are often big, shiny and pompous. Leros War Museum is a solemn and interesting affair. In tunnels beneath a hill, you walk along looking at many artifacts from WW2 and get a sense of the activities on the island. It is small and simple, but it is certainly enough. Nice, cool refuge from the heat and a great way to spend 30 minutes for a couple of euros.

This needs to be seen if you have any interest in what these islanders had to go through 50 to 60 years ago and the photos and films will really help you visualise the ports and landmarks of Leros.

There's nothing spectacular about this museum, although if you're nearby it's worth a visit. It's very humid but if you care for history and items from the war you may enjoy it. There's lots of gear, guns, pictures and outfits and a short video about the battle of Leros in 1943. If you have been to a WW2 museum already, you've seen almost everything this one will offer.Admission is very cheap and you can spend an hour or so looking at things here.

Really, eye opening experience. Learn about all the nations that have fought and died over this special island.

The museum is a brilliant place to visit. It's packed full of items from the war from personal collections. There is a film to watch which was very informative. It's one not to miss. Just be careful as it closes at 1.30pm!
