Since 1989, it is housed in a traditional two-storey house. The exhibits depict Middle Corfu from 1860 till 1960, a region that extended from the southern slopes of Mount Pantokrator till the lake of Korissia.
On the first floor, there is a representation of a rural house with living room, bedroom, kitchen, oven and wine-pressing. An internal floor leads to the second floor, where there is a library , an archive of old documents, some pottery pieces, traditional costumes, musical instruments, a loom, agricultural tools, puppet theatre and some photos. An interesting exhibit is "papirela", a ship of Mesolithic Age made from papirus. |
