Museum · 1 h · €3 · Greece's largest collection of ship paintings, figureheads and the Chronicle of Galaxidi, in a building from 1868

What it is
The museum tells how a fishing village came to have one of the great sailing fleets of Greece. It was founded in 1928 by the doctor Efthymios Vlamis, who began with a gallery of naval painting, and it occupies a building from 1868 about 500 metres from the centre. It holds the largest collection of ship paintings in Greece, many of them of Galaxidi's nineteenth-century sailing ships; wooden figureheads, shipwrights' tools, ship documents and registers, ancient coins from the archaeological section and the Chronicle of Galaxidi, a manuscript published in 1865.
Admission and opening hours
€3. Open Tuesday to Sunday, from 10:00 to 15:00; closed on Monday. It is on the corner of Mouseiou and Stavros Niarchos streets, five minutes' walk from the centre or three by car.

### Before the walk round the harbour
Once you have seen the museum, the captains' houses make more sense.
