Christian Chalkidiki Exhibition

The exhibition is housed in a building near the embarkation point and the Tower of Prosforion.

Constructed in the eighteenth century, this building was the boat-house (arsanas) of the monks of Vatopedi Monastery.

The exhibits date to the Early Christian, Byzantine, and post-Byzantine periods and come from all over Chalkidiki.

Several icons of the eighteenth to early twentieth century from monasteries, churches and chapels in Chalkidiki are on display.

Also noteworthy are the wall paintings from the sanctuary and prothesis apses of a chapel of the Monastery of Saint Anastasia, and several other examples of religious art.
