Archaeological Museum

Top choice in Delos


A vast haul of artefacts has been protected from the elements and displayed in this must-see museum, including the originals of many of the frescoes, mosaics and statues that were removed from the site and replaced with replicas in situ. In the left-hand hall, look for the eye-opening cabinet of erotic items including large stone phalluses.
