Archaeological Museum of Mycenae, Archaeological museum in Mycenae, Greece

The Archaeological Museum of Mycenae presents artifacts from the Late Bronze Age through a collection of 2,500 exhibits from regional excavations.

The museum, established in 2003, stands at the base of the Mycenaean acropolis, which functioned as a major palatial center from 1600 to 1100 BC.

Linear B clay tablets displayed in the museum represent the earliest form of Greek writing, documenting administrative activities of Mycenaean society.

The museum operates from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM during summer months and offers free admission for EU students and children under 18 years old.

The collection includes grave goods from royal shaft graves dating to the 16th century BC, revealing social hierarchies through burial practices.
