What you'll see
A small museum by the old port with painted pots and grave statues, most of them from the neighbouring island of Rhenia, and a large jar decorated with scenes of the fall of Troy.
A brief history
It was built in 1902 to hold finds moved from Rhenia, where the dead of Delos were reburied when the sacred island was 'purified'.
