Archaeological Museum of Arta

The Archaeological Museum of Arta is in Arta City.

The Archaeological Museum of Arta is located on the banks of Arachthos river, very close to the well known Bridge of Arta. The museum building was completed in 2006 to house the archaeological collection of Arta, with archaeological finds from Arta and the surrounding area, which until then could be found in Parigoritisa Monastery.

The halls of the museum, the total area of which is over 1500 square meters, host findings discovered during excavations in the two ancient cemeteries of the city and in ancient public buildings such as the theater and the temple of Apollo.

The exhibits of the museum are divided into three major sections relating to public life, private life and the burials of residents. In the Archaeological Museum of Arta visitors can admire:

  • Figurines, guns and other small items
  • Clay and bronze vases
  • Gold, silver and bronze jewelry
  • Tombstones and parts of buildings

These and many other exhibits give us a clear insight into the lifestyle and habits of the ancient inhabitants of the region.
