The Folk Arts Museum is located in an 18th century house by the harbour. On the ground floor there are olive
presses, a primitive plough, a loom, jugs, and a flail. On the upper floor are traditional handicrafts such as crochet, bed
covers and table cloths, woollen socks, chests with carving, wedding-dresses and wardrobes.
Anthipanitis Church was part of an old monastery and is a good example of Gothic masonry. Some of the frescoes
that have survived are original; some were added in the 15th century. In the original frescoes, Mary is portrayed between
the Archangel Gabriel and Mikhail, holding a child on her chest. In the painting on the ceiling Christ is portrayed in a medallion
circled with angels, with Mary on one side and John the Baptist on the other. The twelve apostles and the prophets are also
present.
The Shipwreck Museum is located within the walls of the castle by the old harbour. The ship exhibited in the
museum is the oldest ship ever recovered and belongs to the period of the Hellenistic kingdoms founded after the death of
Alexander. The ship was raised by researchers from the University of Pennsylvania and carbon dating techniques applied to
its timber show it is from 389 B.C. Carbon dating to the cargo indicates that the ship was about eighty years old when it
sank. The amphorae found on the ship are thought to have been loaded in Rhodes and examination of other remains indicate that
it plied its trade on the Mediterranean and Aegean coasts before setting sail for Cyprus.
