The Archaeological Museum of Veroia, built in the early 1960s, houses and displays antiquities from the entire prefecture of Imathia excluding the area of ancient Aigai (Vergina). Overlooking the exterior of the entrance to the Museum is the emblematic figure of Medusa, a colossal marble work dating to the Hellenistic period from the area of the city’s northern wall.
Following remodelling and re-exhibition of a part of its collections (2008), the exhibition program of the Archaeological Museum of Veroia was arranged in two main sections: the ground floor, which serves primarily as a museum of the ancient city of Veroia, and the upper floormezzanine, where antiquities from excavated sites in the prefecture of Imathia north and west of the River Haliacmon are displayed.
