Museum · 1 h 30 · The bronze Charioteer, the Sphinx of the Naxians and the friezes of the Siphnian Treasury, included in the sanctuary ticket

What it is
The sanctuary's museum, at the edge of the road between the village and the ruins, holds what was found at Delphi. The piece everyone comes to see is the Charioteer, the life-size bronze statue of a chariot driver, from about 470 BC, with the glass-paste eyes still in place. Beside it, the Sphinx of the Naxians, on its column, the friezes of the Siphnian Treasury and the reconstruction of the stone navel, the omphalos, which marked the centre of the world.
Hours and ticket
It is included in the sanctuary's €20 ticket and follows its hours; last entry is 20 minutes before closing. Museum phone: +30 22650 82312.
How to fit it in
After the ruins, in the hot hours: it is about 400 metres' walk from the sanctuary entrance. An hour and a half is enough.

## Consejos

### Save the museum for midday
In summer, the site first thing and the museum when the sun bears down.
