The Museum Inside Thessaloniki’s Iconic Landmark

The White Tower Museum, located within one of Thessaloniki’s most iconic landmarks, serves as both a museum and cultural space. Established in 1992, the museum is housed in the historic White Tower, which dates back to the 15th century. Its mission is to highlight the history and cultural heritage of the city.

The museum’s exhibits cover various periods of Thessaloniki’s history, from antiquity to the modern era. Visitors can explore maps, photographs, documents, and artifacts that reflect the daily life of the city's residents, as well as social and political developments and Thessaloniki’s contribution to Greek and Balkan history.

The White Tower also offers a unique panoramic view of the city and the Thermaic Gulf from its summit. Both the museum and the tower serve as key landmarks for visitors and locals alike, deepening the connection to Thessaloniki’s rich history and culture.
