The Archaeological Museum of Heraklion is one of the most important and largest museums in Greece and one of the most important in Europe. The permanent exhibition of the museum contains unique works of art and Cretan history from excavations from the central and eastern parts of the island. It covers all periods of Crete's history and prehistory from the 5,500 years range from the Neolithic to the Roman times. The museum collections include sculptures, frescos, ceramics, tools, jewelry, various metal objects, seals, tombstones and many more. It is here that the famous finds such as the Fajstos disk, goddess figurine with snakes, double axes, precious ritons or pendant with bees found in the palace in Malia are stored.
The beginnings of the activity date back to the turn of the 19th / 20th centuries when the first archaeological collection was created on the initiative of Józef Chatzidakis, who became famous for archaeological work carried out in Tylissos and the first excavations in the palace in Malia . At the beginning of the activity aimed at creating the museum Chatzidakis obtained permission from the Ottoman authorities. The first collections were placed in the courtyard of the Agios Minas cathedral. They were small and they were based on donations and first small excavations in Crete. The change at the discovery of the Minoan palaces brought about a change, and many important finds constituting the present exhibits of the museum joined the collections for many years.
The construction of the building, which now houses the museum, began in 1937 according to the plans of the architect Patroclus Karantinos. World War II created a huge threat to the museum's ancient collections, but they survived thanks to the efforts made by Professor Nikolaos Plato. It was Plato who oversaw the re-exhibition of the treasures of the museum when they were opened in 1952 to the public. This is not the only merit of this archaeologist. A few years after the museum was opened, he undertook intensive work at the palace in Zakros .

In the early years of the museum's activity, the exhibition presented the chronological development of the Minoan civilization in Crete, the history of archaeological research and the great discoveries of the Minoan palaces from the beginning of the 20th century. Over the following years, the museum was enriched with new collections also from private individuals, and in 1964 a new wing of the museum building was created.
The year 1987 brought many changes to the building's systems. New electrical installation, air conditioning, fire protection systems and others have been created. Subsequent repairs increased the level of security of the exhibits exhibited.
Between November 13, 2006 and May 6, 2014, another long-term renovation took place, for which from 25 July 2007 a temporary exhibition covering 350 sq m was created, on which the most important finds were presented. The progressing renovation and extension was caused by the change of the scope of works and the discovery of the remains of a medieval monastery in the area occupied by the museum building. Thanks to the changes, the Archaeological Museum in Heraklion has gained new spacious rooms, modern installations and finishing. A glance at these modern rooms, corridors or even toilets is enough to state that the Greeks did the work at the highest level.

When traveling around Crete, it is not difficult to pay attention to the fact that most of the beaches there are relatively small and short. For this reason, people who are used to our national Baltic standards, where the sandy coast stretches for kilometers, may experience a special disappointment. However, fortunately, nothing is lost, because Crete in its rich arsenal of various beaches can boast of those that allow for long walks along the coast. One of them, our favorite is the Kommos beach located in the south of the central part of the island.
Although there are countless caves in Crete, only a few can be visited. Sfendoni is the largest cave open to the public. content comes from: http://www.crete.pl www.CRETE.pl

In Crete, in each of the big cities there are archaeological museums where you can see artifacts excavated on the island. The largest and richest in the collection is located in the capital of the island of Heraklion. It is worth visiting them especially that a long-term refurbishment has recently been completed and you can finally appreciate the vastness of the collected items. Nevertheless, other museums are also worth visiting, even though their resources are not as impressive as those in Heraklion. This particularly applies to the Archaeological Museum of Chania.
Most of the Cretan museums refer to the history of the island with their exhibits, whose history dates back to the distant ancient times. However, this should not be surprising, because Crete is a real treasury full of this type of artifacts. It is worth remembering, however, that the island also has an equally interesting and equally dramatic history written over the last several hundred years. The exhibits gathered in the Military Museum in Chromonastiri refer to this subject, much closer to our times.
The Archeological Museum in Eleftherna is still a 'fresh' attraction, which we attach to our map of places to visit in Crete. Even before the opening, it was one of the most anticipated and unique investments carried out over the past few years. What constitutes the uniqueness of this museum is above all the findings from beyond the period of Minoan culture. Visitors to this place can learn about the remains of the Greek civilization described by Homer.

Bilet łączony
Byliśmy wczoraj zwiedzić Pałac. Dobrze się tam wybrać w godzinach popoludniowych- mniej turystów. Jeśli chodzi o bilet łączony to faktycznie świetna okazja, ale warto doczytać, że bilet ten jest ważny 1 dzień do Pałacu, a przez 3 dni do Muzeum w Heraklionie
Warto wiedzieć, warto znać
Warto wiedzieć, że wejście do muzeów państwowych w Grecji jest darmowe dla studentów z krajów UE (miejcie przy sobie legitymację studencką).
Warto znać tę stronę (szczególnie miłośnicy starożytności) http://odysseus.culture.gr/a/6/ea60.jsp
A tak w ogóle to chciałem się przywitać z twórcami crete.pl bo to mój pierwszy wpis. Robicie świetną robotę. Do 2013 r. odwiedzałem Grecję kilka razy ale Kreta ciągle jeszcze pozostaje w marzeniach, które skutecznie są podsycane przez Wasze przewodniki po wyspie.
Pozdrawiam Was i wszystkich, którzy wpisują się na forum
...Warto wiedzieć, warto znać...
Witaj Pietrek :) Zawsze nam miło czytać pozytywne komentarze :)
My także polecamy stronę http://odysseus.culture.gr/ bo znajdują się na niej praktyczne informacje dotyczące muzeów i stanowisk archeo w całej Grecji. Muzea oferują także inne zniżki, wszystko to jest opisane na powyższej stronie. Warto więc czytać tym bardziej że bilety wstępu jakiś czas temu podrożały :)
To kiedy wybierzesz się na Kretę? :)
Pozdrawiamy
