Worth of hiking to the top of the hill. The guide was very friendly in the museum. Ticket price only 2€/person. The road is not very steep, yet you better get a bottle of water and refresh yourself in a hot weather. The views from the castle are thrilling and the entire area is well maintained, green and clean. The museum is not very big, yet it stores mayne thousands of artifacts. One of them is a small ceramic place showing a battle in the sea, which is supposed to be the oldest artifact that proves such type of battle. When in Lamia or nearby, definitely pay a visit to the castle and museum. The management MUST work pretty much in promoting it as it is a national asset.

Το Αρχαιολογικό Μουσείο Λαμίας στεγάζεται στον αναστηλωμένο οθωνικό στρατώνα, που βρίσκεται στην ακρόπολη της αρχαίας Λαμίας. Υπάρχει πολύ μεγάλη ποικιλία εκθεμάτων που μπορείτε να θαυμάσετε. Στο ισόγειο του Μουσείου εκτίθενται ένα μαρμάρινο άγαλμα φιλοσόφου σε φυσικό μέγεθος, ρωμαϊκών χρόνων, από τον Αχινό, ένα σύνολο επιτύμβιων στηλών, τύπων συναντώμενων στη Φθιώτιδα και μία απελευθερωτική επιγραφή δούλων από τον Αχινό. Στον πρώτο όροφο, εκτίθενται γλυπτά, όπως κεφαλές, κορμοί, αναθηματικά ανάγλυφα. Στις προθήκες Ι και Ια-Ιβ, της βόρειας αίθουσας, εκτίθενται ευρήματα της νεολιθικής εποχής, όπως κεραμικοί τύποι όλων των φάσεων της εποχής, πήλινα ειδώλια, κοσμήματα και σφονδύλια. Οι επόμενες περιλαμβάνουν ευρήματα της πρώιμης εποχής του Χαλκού (προθήκες ΙΙ και ΙΙα-β) και της μέσης εποχής του Χαλκού (προθήκες ΙΙΙ και ΙΙΙα-β) με χαρακτηριστικούς τύπους αγγείων, πήλινων και λίθινων, καθώς και πολλά άλλα σημαντικά εκθέματα.

Nice museum. Well organised and maintained. It has exhibits with displays and artifacts from 3000bc until 150ac from local region. It is really interesting and you need 1hour to tour yourself around or a couple of hours if you want to explore the details.

I enjoyed visiting this local museum as it introduced me to a people and culture I was previously unfamiliar. The artifacts are housed in a restored hilltop fortress. Items are plentiful and although there is not much English, I was still able to appreciate the craftsmanship and historical value. I spent over an hour here and I practically had the entire museum to myself. The views from the museum grounds overlooking Lamía and the surrounding countryside are...
