Thessaloniki Museum of Photography, National photography museum in Thessaloniki Port, Greece
The Thessaloniki Museum of Photography occupies a warehouse on the first pier of the port. The spaces display photographs by artists from Greece and around the world, featuring both contemporary and older images.
The institution was founded in the late 1990s and opened its doors for the first time in 2001 in the port area. Its start came from ideas of several photographers who wanted to preserve and support the art form.
The collection showcases work by photographers who captured daily life and important moments over many decades. The archives tell stories of people, places, and events that shaped the region.
Visiting is straightforward: the building sits right at the harbor and is easy to locate. Plan about two hours to see the exhibitions without rushing.
The building itself is a former warehouse from when the port was the hub of economic life. This setting gives the exhibitions a special context and character.
