Santorini Museums & Art

Santorini’s museums cover millennia of history, from the Bronze Age frescoes at the Museum of Prehistoric Thera to the island's 20th-century industrial heritage. Explore the volcanic origins of the Atlantis myth at the Lost Atlantis Experience, or visit the Tomato Industrial Museum housed in a former processing plant. The island's viticulture is documented in underground wine museums and gravity-fed wineries like Venetsanos. Artistic collections include ecclesiastical icons in monasteries, contemporary ceramics, and maritime artifacts reflecting Oia’s naval past.
