MUSEUM OF GREEK POPULAR INSTRUMENTS

The Museum of Popular Instruments – Research Center for Ethnomusicology (MELMOKE) comprises the collection of about 1200 Greek popular musical instruments dating from the 18th Century to the present day, the fruit of a half century of research and study by the musicologist Phoibos Anoyanakis.

The Museum is housed in the historical Lassanis Mansion, which was built in 1824 close to the Roman Agora.
