The Archaeological Museum of Serres has been housed since 1970 in a listed monument, the “Bezesteni”, a closed and covered 15th c. market lying in the center of the city of Serres. It is one of only a very few such buildings remaining in Greece. Following conservation and reconstruction works on the building, an attractive exhibition space was created. A major tourist attraction for those visiting the Serres prefecture, it functions as a diachronic museum, with exhibits dating from the Prehistoric to the Byzantine period from noteworthy archaeological sites in the prefecture.
