Statue of Hermes by Praxiteles is here! One of the most famous ancient statues of all time. Hermes left hand holds baby brother Dionysus; his right arm believed to have held grapes before breaking off

Katerina Komninou

Really amazing! It is said that the biggest copper collection of findings in the world is here! The astonishing statue of Hermes made by the sculptor Praxiteles will amaze you!

Here is the Nike of Paionios statue . Nike is the goddess of Victory in Greek Mythology. In Louvre Museum (Paris), you might have already seen another Nike, the Nike of Samothraki statue !

Definitely one of the most important museums of the world that contains priceless artifacts , like the ruins of the temple of Zeus , which is one of the seven wonders of the Ancient World!!!
