Artists Museum of Tinos

This museum includes sculptures and paintings of Artists of Tinos. It was founded in 1930 and has been added to ever since. Only one part of the collection comes from works bought by the Foundation, which never stopped supporting the arts and literature. Many of the works have been donated by the creators themselves as a token of gratitude for the scholarships that the Foundation granted them to study.

Archeological Museum

The Archeological Museum of Tinos is situated on the main street that leads to the port and the Church of the Virgin Mary.

You will find a rich collection of amphorae and domestic utensils from various periods, vases of the Geometric period, great amphorae and clay pots, as well as headstones of the 5th century that were found in Exombourgo and Kampos. In the museum's yard, you will also find exhibits of pieces of the temple of Poseidon and Amfitriti.
