Museum of Palaiopolis-Mon Repos













The Museum of Palaiopolis-Mon Repos is located in the Mon Repos Estate, approximately 2 km from the center of Corfu Town (Kerkyra). Housed in a neoclassical villa built during the British occupation by High Commissioner Frederic Adam (1828–1831), the museum offers a glimpse into both 19th-century life and ancient Corfu.
Museum Highlights:
- Ground Floor: Explore memorabilia from the British occupation, including portraits, furniture, and personal items of Lady Diamantina-Nina Palatianou, the first resident of the villa.
- First Floor: Discover antiquities from the archaeological site of Palaiopolis, shedding light on daily life, trade, and religious practices in ancient Corfu.
- Second Floor: Features temporary exhibitions and cultural events.
