The Museum of Marble Crafts is in Pyrgos village, in Tinos.

Established in 2007, this is the most modern museum in the island. Here you have the chance to see the whole course of marble, from mining to obtaining its final form by the hands of the sculptor.

In the museum, visitors can admire among others:

• Tools for quarrying and marble crafts
• Works in marble for daily use (fountains, lintels, coats etc)
• Models and plaster copies
• Mechanical equipment (lifting machine, marble wagons etc.)

The Museum of Marble Crafts has placed particular emphasis on familiarizing children with marble carving. So it has a number of excellent films to teach children (and parents) the history and technique of processing marble and occasionally organizes activities and games on marble carving.

From the moment you set foot on Tinos, an island that hides a marble masterpiece in every corner, it would be silly of you not to visit the Museum of Marble Crafts and learn the secrets of the art of marble.
