About Archaeological Museum of Milos

The Venus de Milo was found on the island in 1820 and is now in the Louvre, but the museum in Plaka displays a cast, along with finds from the Bronze Age town of Phylakopi and the island’s obsidian trade. Small and worth an hour, especially before sunset in Plaka.

Why it's on our list

  • Cast of the Venus de Milo
  • Bronze Age finds
  • Pair with sunset in Plaka

Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with Archaeological Museum of Milos before you go.
