Delos museum construction plans approved

The plans for the construction of a new museum on the island of Delos were apparently given the green light by the Central Archaeological Council, after the funds for the plans were collected.

The new museum is going to have to adhere to strict bio-climatic architectural standards and be situated as far away as possible from the sea, in order to better protect the antiquities and the museum itself from the elements.

Also, it is going to occupy a space of at least 5,000 square meters and feature all of the exhibits displayed in the existing museum, as well as other interesting artifacts located on the island’s archaeological sites and/or in storage.

It should be noted, that the funds for this project were donated by the London-based International Foundation for Greece.
