Archaeological Museum of Naxos

The Archaeological Museum of Naxos is one of the most important museums in the world due to its early Cycladic collection which includes the famous marble figurines. It boasts unique works of art and objects of daily use from Naxos and the so-called Little Cyclades complex (Schoinoussa, Donoussa, Koufonissia, Keros-Daskalio, Iraklia), which highlight the history of the Aegean region. Currently the Museum is closed since it is part of the project 'Islet of Museums in the Castle of Chora, Naxos' which is in progress of works. In the frame of this project, the Museum will be fully renovated so as to be included in a network of museums and other venues of cultural interest in the Castle of Chora, Naxos. From the 15th of May 2021 and for as long as the project lasts a 'Temporary Exhibition' of the Archaeological Museum of Naxos is available on the second floor of the Cultural Center 'Saint Ursula' at the former Ursulines Monastery of the Holy Catholic Archbishopric of Naxos, offering an enjoyable travel to the island's significant archaeological past.
