One of the main attractions of Delphi is the archaeological museum. There are more than 6000 exhibits in this museum!
Here are collected all the unique finds made by archaeologists, which are part of the treasures that were in Delphi. Its exposition presents the most beautiful statues of ancient gods and religious objects found in sanctuaries. This is the Naxos Sphinx, two unique statues from the 6th century BC. e. , a bronze sculpture "charioteer" and a very beautiful statue of Apollo with a perfect body. The museum's collection is considered one of the richest in Greece. In addition, the museum is completely new, large, spacious, it has a lot of air and even groups are not crowded with each other. The exhibits are convenient to inspect and take pictures (you can take pictures in it!!! ). The inscriptions are very comprehensive, there is no need for a guide. And it is also cool in it, which is important for the hot climate of Greece.
