Il museo di Eleusi (ingresso: 20 euro), vicino ad Atene, è nuovo di zecca, e purtroppo si vede nell'allestimento, che segue l'ultima moda delle "catacombe-museo", che hanno dichiarato guerra alla luce del sole, ma soprattutto si annusa, con il lezzo di colla di pesce che impesta tutte le sale.

In compenso i reperti sono davvero belli, il personale del museo è molto gentile e parla inglese. Esiste un deposito bagagli per lo zainetto, ma bisogna chiedere dove sia, perché è distaccato (prima di arrivare all'ingresso).

Alta la qualità dei reperti, in buona parte di epoca romana, ma ispirati alla migliore tradizione greca classica. Segnalo la gigantesca cariatide canefora, un tempo sulla facciata dei "piccoli propilei", l'Antinoo, il sepolcro con la caccia al cinghiale Calidonio, lo straordinario vaso arcaico con scena dell'Odissea (Accecamento di Polifemo), e varie tabelle con rilievi e iscrizioni legate al culto, spiegate bene dalle utili didascalie (in greco e inglese).

Le rovine del santuario sono ben segnalate e accompagnate da tabelloni illustrativi in greco e inglese, con utili disegni ricostruttivi dell'alzato originale (stranamente, si è scelto di ricostruire poco, per cui colonne e pezzi dei monumenti originali giacciono ordinatamente accatastati accanto al luogo in cui sorgevano. Spettacolare, fra questo materiale accatastato per terta, il busto clipeato di imperatore romano, che campeggiava al centro di un timpano).

Per buona parte della visita si cammina sul lastricato originale in marmo, praticamente intatto.

Larghi tratti delle primitive mura ciclopiche, poi riparate e allargate in epoca classica ed ellenistica, conservano l'alzato per diversi metri.

La "Via Sacra" è fiancheggiata da iscrizioni di fedeli, e dai basamenti delle statue "ex-voto", purtroppo scomparse.

La visita è ricca di fascino e di atmosfera. Specialmente in primavera, quando i terreni attorno alle rovine sono fioriti di piante selvatiche, e l'aria profuma di fiori. Visita sicuramente...

It was very hot. No shade, just if you bring children. The informationbords was very uninformativ. In generel greek museums need to inform more. Both religion, historic and myth. In the museum There was No timeline or explanation to the very beautiful miniature sculpture. i could have used something to understand what i was looking at. But the sculptures, the doric colm - All very beautiful. I would go on a weekend or after 16:00. There is a school close by. And aparently they look after kids by yealling in a megaphone📣 that ruiend it a bit for me, because IT was difficult to Imagine how IT must have been with a man yealling at the kids...

European cultural capital!!??? What!? Such an important site is treated like a pile of detritus. The MOST annoying thing are the "attendants": they don't know almost anything of the place and they keep following your steps overwatching you as you are a criminal, without any motivation. They keep ALWAYS staring at you, making your visit uncomfortable, BUT if asked about everything, they cannot really answer. It's sad, but it doesn't worth a visit. Looking at the temple from the outside is the best: such annoying staff, at least, cannot keep looking at you insisting like only a...

Sehr zu empfehlen. Sehr interessante Funde, die hervorragend präsentiert werden. Wenn man die ebenfalls sehr lohnende Ausgrabungsstätte besucht, sollte man das Museum auf jeden Fall auch besuchen.

Small in size yet with a rich collection of impressive antiquities, mostly from the Archaic and the Classical periods, and quite a few from the Roman as well. Easy to visit, and the cost is included in the ticket for the archeological site. It is a must if you find your way here.
