A complete picture of the Byzantine heritage of the region

The Byzantine Museum of Halkidiki, which is housed in the Nea Flogiota Partition Complex, is an important cultural and archaeological site in Halkidiki. The museum offers a unique opportunity to explore the rich Byzantine heritage of the region.

The Metochion Complex, where the museum is located, is a historic building that was originally used as a metochi, i.e. a building associated with the management and support of monastic communities. The building was renovated and converted into a museum, preserving its architectural features, which reflect the Byzantine Empire period.

The museum hosts a rich collection of exhibits including Byzantine icons, sculptures, archaeological finds and relics from various regions of Halkidiki. Indicative exhibits include Byzantine mosaics, statues and relics of ecclesiastical buildings that reveal the religious and artistic life of the period.

A visit to the Byzantine Museum of Halkidiki offers a complete picture of the Byzantine heritage of the region and is combined with a visit to the surrounding historical monuments of Halkidiki.
