KISSAMOS ARCHAEOLOGICAL MUSEUM

The Archaeological Museum of Kissamos is housed in a Venetian-Turkish monument, known as the Headquarters. It is located in the Venetian residential area, outside the wall of the Venetian castle, “Castel Chissamos”, from which the previous name of the town, Kastelli, derives. During the Turkish occupation of the island the castle was enlarged and the building was enclosed inside the fortification walls. Over time the monument was remodeled many times; the last one being its recent transformation into this Museum in 2000. The exhibits present the history of the  Kissamos district, from the Prehistoric period through late antiquity (Early Christian period).
