This museum puts on display the numerous types of currency that Greece has used from 1822 to the present which is about 2000 items. Not only can you see the past types of currency here, but you also get to see how they are made and watermarked. Since this museum is free to attend, I would suggest checking it out and seeing for yourself the history of Greece through currency.

Superb museum in a magical setting that houses artefacts from prehistoric to Roman to Islamic times. People have lived in this area for over 40,000 years and it was fantastic to see these objects in the country they were found
