Museums

In Kalymnos you can visit the Marine Folklore Museum that is beside the Town Hall.

              

Objects that were mainly used by sponge-divers and many photographs of older times are exhibited.


An historical museum is Vouvalis's Museum.

                                     

Here are historical discoveries of prehistoric years.

Moreover, because it is housed in the residence of Nikolaos Vouvalis, the biggest sponge-trader, there are some rooms in the house that are open to the public decorated as they used to be.

 

 

(Soon, a new museum is going to be inaugurated in the neighbouring building with many and of great value recent discoveries from the temple of Apollo).
