[1] The museum hosts 150 wax models in 37 themes, inspired by various events from Greek history.

[3] The museum facility covers an area of 2,500 m2 (2,990 sq yd) and is built according to the traditional, local, fortress-type architectural style of 18th-century, according to Vrellis' own design.

[5] The wax effigies of the museum are displayed in life size, included in a faithful representation of the environment of their age and revive forms of the local history.

The visitor moves along mountains, houses, caves, churches, and alleys, following a non-circular but endless course, ingeniously devised and arranged.

[4] There are three thematic units in the Museum: pre 1821 history, Greek War of Independence (1821-1830) and themes from World War II:[2][7] Moreover, specific themes are inspired from Jewish history, like images from The Holocaust[8]
