Archeological Museum of Corfu, Archaeological museum in Garitsa, Greece
The two-story museum houses numerous ancient artifacts, including bronze statues, funeral offerings, and an extensive collection of ancient coins from various periods.
The museum building, constructed between 1962 and 1965 on land given by the Municipality of Corfu, opened its doors to the public in 1967.
The exhibition space presents artifacts from prehistoric to Roman times, illustrating the development of Corfu through archaeological findings and everyday objects.
Following extensive renovations from 2012 to 2016, the museum now features modern exhibition spaces across two floors with clear chronological and thematic organization.
The museum displays the Gorgon pediment from 585 BC, discovered near the monastery of Aghioi Theodoroi in 1911, representing the oldest stone pediment in Greece.
