Archaeological museum of Lamia, Archaeological museum at Lamia Castle, Greece.

The Archaeological Museum of Lamia exhibits artifacts in a restored military barracks building situated on top of a steep hill within castle walls.

The museum, which opened in 1994, occupies an 1830 barracks constructed during King Otto's reign and later transformed by the Ministry of Culture in 1973.

The collection spans from Neolithic to Roman periods, featuring marble statues, pottery, bronze helmets, gold jewelry, and religious objects from ancient Greek settlements.

Visitors can explore the museum from Tuesday through Sunday between 8:00 and 15:00, with regular admission at 2 euros and reduced rates at 1 euro.

The first floor displays a marble votive relief of Artemis Eileithyia from 400 BC, showing a mother presenting her infant to the deity.
