Archaeological Museum of Nicopolis, Archaeological museum in Nicopolis, Greece

The Archaeological Museum of Nicopolis is a modern building of 2,150 square metres on a 20-hectare plot at the entrance to Preveza, on the Preveza–Arta road. It has two main exhibition halls of 200 square metres each, plus a multi-purpose room, conservation laboratories, storerooms, a ticket office, a shop, a café and a guesthouse. Its collections come from Nicopolis: architectural members, sculptures, and grave goods from the surrounding cemetery.

The first collection was kept from 1913 in a former Ottoman mosque in Preveza, bombed by Italian aircraft in 1940 and later demolished. A small museum built in 1965 inside Nicopolis's early Christian walls held the finds until 2009, when the new building opened.

The permanent exhibition displays sculptures, pottery, and inscriptions that reveal how daily life unfolded in the ancient city. You can see how trade and religious practices shaped the community.

The museum is located north of Preveza and is accessible by foot or car from the town center. Plan enough time to walk through the different galleries at a comfortable pace.

The marble head of General Agrippa was found by antiquities guard Georgios Nousias in a cultivated field at Nicopolis and handed to the museum; it is broken into two pieces and glued back together. The museum also holds a seated marble lion of the 3rd–4th century BC found at the Theatre of Octavian.
