Milos Mining Museum
The island’s mineral wealth
About Milos Mining Museum
Milos owes its colours, and much of its history, to its minerals, and the Mining Museum in Adamas explains it all: obsidian traded across the prehistoric Aegean, sulphur, and the bentonite and perlite still mined today. It makes the island’s strange landscapes make sense.
