About the museum
The Archaeological Collection of Archanes was founded in 1993 on the initiative of the archaeologists Giannis and Efi Sakellarakis. Its finds come from excavations both at the archaeological site of Archanes, where one of the most important Minoan palace complexes (1900–1450 BC) was uncovered, and in the wider area of the present-day settlement.
