Kisamos, GR Get Directions

The historical trajectory of Kisamos, from prehistory to late antiquity, unfolds in the renovated Venetian-Turkish Headquarters.

The finds from the Roman town, which occupy the first floor, hold pride of place: one can marvel at the magnificent mosaic floors, sculptures and a sundial that adorned the urban Greco-Roman villas, among others.
