Museum of Ancient Greek Technology

About

The Museum of Ancient Greek Technology is the brainchild of Kostas Kotsanas, a mechanical engineer who spent decades researching and recreating Greece’s most groundbreaking inventions through the ages. Over 500 models of Greek inventions are accompanied by audio-visual presentations. Here, visitors can learn about the ancient empire’s ingenious inventions, ranging from a precursor of chess, to cranes, automatons, and a variety of scientific implements. One of the most fascinating aspects of the museum is that it outlines how these ancient mechanisms have contributed to today’s technology.
