Vorres Museum

Great to come just for the gardens

Vorres Museum

Located in six acres of lush gardens in Paiania, the Vorres Museum near Athens Airport was founded in 1983 by Ian Vorres in order to promote Greek art and culture through a diverse range of activities, exhibitions and children's activities.

The museum is divided into two sections: Contemporary and Folk Art. Both showcase over 2,500 years of Greek history.

Vorres Museum

Whilst the museums are interesting, it's the gardens that are the main reason to come to the Vorres Museum.  They're peaceful, beautiful and you could happily sit for hours reading a book, drinking a coffee or just watching the world go by.
