Byzantine Museum of Chios
Βυζαντινό Μουσείο Χίου
Byzantine and post-Byzantine collections inside the former mid-nineteenth-century Mecidiye Mosque on Chios Town's central square.
Directions
The museum has a fascinating double identity. Its collections introduce Byzantine and post-Byzantine art, while the building itself - the former 19th-century Mecidiye Mosque - is a reminder of the Ottoman chapter of urban Chios. Its position on the central square makes it an easy cultural stop between the modern town and the Castle.
