Archaeological Museum of Samothrace, History museum in Palaiopoli, Samothrace, Greece

The Archaeological Museum of Samothrace contains four exhibition rooms and an atrium displaying architectural remains, sculptures, and artifacts from the ancient sanctuary.

The museum building was constructed between 1939 and 1955 by the American School of Classical Studies in Athens, with an additional wing added in 1960.

The collection includes restored architectural features, ceremonial objects, and inscriptions that document the religious practices of ancient Greeks at the sanctuary.

Visitors can purchase a combined ticket for 6 euros that grants access to both the museum and the Sanctuary of the Great Gods.

A marble replica of the Nike of Samothrace statue, created using techniques shared by the Louvre, stands at the museum entrance since 2021.
