The Archaeological Museum of Naxos, located in Chora, Naxos, showcases an important collection of artifacts from the Cycladic civilization, including renowned marble figurines and objects of daily life. Currently, the museum is undergoing renovations as part of the “Islet of Museums” project, resulting in limited access to exhibits. Visitors can enter for free but should note that the main collections are not on display, and the tour is brief, typically taking around 15 to 20 minutes. Access is relatively easy, given its central location within the old Ursulines Monastery.
The museum features a temporary exhibition that highlights the rich archaeological history of Naxos and the Little Cyclades. Visitors may find a small selection of Cycladic vases, neolithic artifacts, and other culturally significant items. While the main exhibition areas are closed, the site remains a point of interest for those exploring the island’s heritage.
