Archaeological Museum of Agios Kirykos — Attraction in Icaria Municipality

Local museum with multiple chance findings and donations from locals. It's clear that ikarians take pride in their heritage. Very instructive with a lot of beautiful artifacts from neolithic to orientalising era. Check out the quite rare cybele and hermaphroditus figurines. Definitely worth a visit if you have the time as the entrance is free of charge. There's also a side wing dedicated to the museum's own history, although I didn't get to see that part detailed since I spent most of it's open hours in the museum itself. Keep in mind it closes relatively early,...

This is an excellent small museum in a lovely building, with interesting exhibits, very well laid out, and very good descriptions written in Greek and English. Incorporating the 11,000 year history of habitation on this beautiful island; there are many ancient finds from all over the island, and fascinating references to the island in Ancient Greek writing and poetry. There's interesting background too on gods like Artemis, and of course the myth of Icarus. Very well worth a visit. And free too! Opening hours are Monday to Friday...

Very informative and beautiful things they have discovered! This museum is a small masterpiece. Highly recommended,the building itself is beautiful. There are things thousands years old and even pieces of gold jewelry! Not access for wheelchair so I have to take out at least 1 star. U have to get the opening hours though, is not all day long available for the public!!! Greeks and English signs explaining...
