Archaeological
Museum of Paros
The museum
was founded in 1960, when a large room was built next to the High School,
to house the antiquities which were until then kept in the cells of the
Katapoliani monastery. A second room was built at the end of the 1960's
and further extension work of the museum began only recently, in
1995.
The
museum contains the following collections:
Room
A: Archaic and Classical sculpture.
Room
B: Pottery, sculpture and small finds dating from the Neolithic to the
Roman period.
Atrium:
Sculptures, architectural parts, urns, and a mosaic floor dating from the
Roman period.
