Local tip
The museum has very high tech interactive parts which are fun and you end up learning a lot as you go.

Founded in 1986, the Museum of Cycladic Art prides itself on the promotion and study of ancient cultures of the Aegean and Cyprus, in particular, the Cycladic Art of the 3rd millennium BC.

It was originally built to house the collection of Nicholas and Dolly Goulandris when it first opened, but has since grown dramatically in size to accommodate new art work they have acquired either through direct purchases or through donations by important collectors and institutions.

There are currently three main themes uncovered in the galleries, including Cycladic Art 3200-2000 BC, Ancient Greek Art 2000 BC - 395 AD, and Ancient Cypriot Art 3900 BC - 6th c. AD.
