Archaeological Museum - New Building, Archaeological museum in Mytilene, Greece.

The New Archaeological Museum building contains exhibits from the late Neolithic Age to the Roman period, displaying ceramics, sculptures, and mosaics from Lesbos island.

The museum moved to its current location after geological issues affected the original 1935 building, leading to a complete renovation and official opening in 1991.

The museum collection demonstrates the development of local craftsmanship through artifacts found in Roman villas, ancient settlements, and burial grounds across Lesbos.

Located near the port, the museum remains open from Wednesday to Monday between 08:30 and 15:30, with admission prices of 4 euros for adults and 2 euros for reduced tickets.

The modern building includes specialized exhibition areas for mosaic floors recovered from Roman residences, presented at their original excavation level.
