Museum of Palaiopolis-Mon Repos
The Palaiopolis-Mon Repos Museum opened its doors to the public in 2001.
The mansion, in which the Museum is currently housed, was built at the time of British rule by Sir Frederick Adam, Lord High Commissioner of the Ionian islands. It is a typical example of early 19th century neoclassical architecture (1828-1831).
The permanent display, based on two main themes, is spread over fourteen galleries.
