Contact information and access to the Museum
The Ethnographic Museum is located in the eastern part of Arachova, on the central street coming through town. Arachova is in a distance of 163km away from Athens, and it usually takes around two hours to get there from the centre of the capital city. There are parking areas at the eastern and western ends of Arachova, thus allowing the visitor to park his/her car there and walk around the city. The Ethnographic Museum is in a short walking distance from both parking areas.

Monday and Tuesday: closed
Wednesday to Sunday: 11:00 – 18:00
