When the guide says we are going to a mining museum, the expectations start out low. This place was well organized and had interesting and engaging exhibits. The geology of this island is surprisingly diverse leading to it being a major source of minerals from prehistoric times to the present. Particularly heart wrenching is the plight of the island sulfur miners, who eventually worked with no pay in a futile effort to keep the mine going. Hands-on exhibits where you can touch the various minerals such as kaolin are a nice feature.

The Folk Museum of Milos is open since 1967 and is run by the Melian Association in Athens. The characteristic of the museum is that the visitor is not seeing an exhibition of old things, but he’s visiting a home, where every object is at its place.

More than 3000 years all collected in two rooms. For a truly comprehensive understanding of the island, you must visit the archaeological museum. It has a replica of the Aphrodite of Milos, the world famous statue taken from Milos and now in the Louvre.
