Archaeological Museum of Beroea, Archaeological museum in Veroia, Greece.
Description
The Archaeological Museum of Veroia displays collections organized across three halls, with objects spanning from the Paleolithic era to the Ottoman period. The spaces have been recently renovated, and a new wall display in the garden area presents relocated artifacts for improved viewing.
History
The museum preserves artifacts from Nea Nikomedeia, one of the oldest continuously inhabited human settlements documented in Neolithic Europe. These finds provide evidence of some of the earliest permanent dwelling sites on the continent.
Culture
The exhibition displays grave markers, carved reliefs, and burial goods that reveal how people in ancient Macedonia honored their dead. These objects show what was considered important to include with the deceased for the afterlife.
Practical
The renovated garden and indoor spaces allow visitors to explore the collections comfortably in a relaxed setting. Plan to spend time in all three halls and view the new wall display at a leisurely pace.
Did you know?
The museum holds an inscribed bust of the river god Olganos from the 2nd century AD, a rare representation of a local deity. A bronze water jug from the 4th century BC demonstrates the skilled craftsmanship of that era.
