Aiani Archaeological Museum, Archaeological museum in Aiani, Greece.
The Aiani Archaeological Museum is an archaeological museum located on sloping ground north of Aiani town, structured across two floors with exhibition spaces dedicated to regional finds. The displays cover material culture from Bronze Age communities through the Classical period in Upper Macedonia.
The museum was established in 1970 to safeguard and display finds from the ancient kingdom of Elimiotis. A major expansion in the early 1980s made it possible to exhibit the numerous archaeological discoveries from this significant region of Upper Macedonia.
The collection displays artifacts from the Late Bronze Age through the Classical period, including gold brooches, painted vessels, and clay figurines of deities. These objects tell stories of daily life and religious practices among the people who once lived in this region.
The museum is located on sloping ground north of town, so visitors should expect uneven walkways and stairs. The building is fully accessible for people with mobility concerns and provides clear orientation throughout the space.
The museum offers interactive educational programs that showcase ancient craft techniques through three-dimensional reconstructions. These modern presentations help visitors visualize how people worked and produced goods in antiquity.
