Spyros is an incredibly enthusiastic, kind and proud owner of his collection of antiquities, geological stones and minerals and artifacts depicting Greek mythology and Greek gods! The paintings on the ceilings we found especially beautiful! Spyros gave us a personal and enthusiastic tour and told us about his findings with a lot of wit. We would definitely recommend going here! It is a good way to see a broad spectrum historical Greek treasures!

If you are round the area I highly suggest visiting this lovely little museum, so much to see and cheap for what its worth. Great to go along with friends or family, owners will give you a full tour and explain anything needed to know. They also have a really nice little gift shop for you to take some lovely souvenir's home.

For a small charge, this Synagogue provides entrée into the remarkable life stories of the Jewish people of Rhodes. The interior of the Synagogue is beautiful with its pebbled floor and light filled interior. It provides a calm and contemplative space to reflect on the generations of Jewish life revealed in the adjacent museum.
