About the museum
The Archaeological Museum of Karpathos is housed in one of the three buildings of the Eparchy (district administration complex), a complex from the Italian period on the island, in Pigadia.
Its rooms display finds from the prehistoric settlement of Pigadia, from the island’s three ancient cities, and from the early Christian basilicas and Byzantine settlements. Of particular interest are a reconstruction of a Mycenaean tomb and the templon (chancel screen) of an early Christian basilica.
