Folklore Museum of Limenaria


The folklore museum in Limenaria, Thasos was established in 1993 by To Kastro, the Limenaria cultural association. It is housed in the former community office in the centre of the village. Limenaria is a village in the south of Thasos, 40 km from the main town, Limenas.
The purpose of the museum is to preserve and promote the local tradition. It therefore displays household artifacts and clothing, tools of various trades, and tools from the time when the local mines opened. The museum also displays Mr Kyprianos Georgiadis’‘ private collection of books and stationery.
