Lovely little museum, lots of pottery from many eras, including a huge Pithos that is wider than the door of the room it was found in! The archeological site is a good size and goes back 6,000 years.

It is the first established archaeological museum in Greece but it is quite old and there is a plan to transfer the exhibits to Capodistrian orphanage of the island. It was founded in 1829 and it has a few collections and a green atrium. It is located inside the archaeological site of Kolona, only two minutes on foot from the main port.

A small however highly significant museum for not only the Aegina Island but for all the Hellenic settlement situated just in the archaeological site known as Kolona. At the site you may see the ruins way back from the Prehistoric times, the Archaic-Hellenistic Acropolis, the sanctuary of Apollo and Aphaia and ultimately a Byzantine settlement. Displays fractions of pediments from the Temples, beautiful ceramic vases, sculptures and finds from all the settlements mentioned above.

The museum is pretty old and the collection is not that impresive (compered with other archaiological museums in greece). Still it's a nice visit and a must see if you are in aegins. On the same place the archaiological site of column (κολωνα) wich was a pretty nice walk. That is what remained from the first museum that opened in modern greece when aegina was the capital. The aegina collection was the core of the national archaelogical museum in athens.
