Archaeological Museum of Ioannina

Αρχαιολογικό Μουσείο Ιωαννίνων

The Archaeological Museum of Ioannina is the museum of the archaeology of Epirus in Ioannina, on Litharitsia Hill, in a building designed by the architect Aris Konstantinidis.

Why go

Hellenic Heritage says the museum's collections run from the earliest human presence in Epirus, in the Lower Palaeolithic, to the late Roman period, with sections including Prehistoric Epirus, The Aeacids, The Kings of the Molossians and The Archaeology of Death. It says a hall is devoted to finds from the Sanctuary of Dodona, among them lead tablets inscribed with pilgrims' questions to Zeus and Dione; the sanctuary itself is a separate place outside the city. Hellenic Heritage gives the address as 6 25th Martiou Square, on Litharitsia Hill, and says the building was designed by Aris Konstantinidis. Opening arrangements and entry rules are not given here.
