Very interesting collection of Greek musical instruments. I appreciate that headphones are there for people who want to listen to the sounds of the instruments. Some headphones were not working. But can’t complain because it’s a free exhibit. All in all a must-go for music buffs.

If you're a musician, you don't want to miss this. The history of clarinets and bagpipes was particularly interesting.
Small museum with traditional folk music instruments. But what an intresting surprise. Well presented and to the point. Free enterance and easy to find. Worth a visit. Don't miss the audio samples with traditional music from various greek regions
What a fascinating array of instruments! And most I had never heard of. One of my favorite attractions in Athens!
This very small museum is free, and great. Three floors of traditional Greek instruments, with information in Greek and english. There are some videos of people playing music, and headphones you can put on to listen to traditional music. Beautiful handmade instruments. About an hour or an hour and a half to see and really digest everything.
As a musician, I found the museum quite interesting, with many well-preserved traditional instruments and good explanations. However, several of the headphones to listen to examples were missing. Also, it's small, you can go through it quite thoroughly and it doesn't take too long.
Free, concise, and well laid out. The museum isn't very large, but they do a good job of presenting a lot of historical instrument usage. More instruments than description (but everything is labeled). Also a nice bathroom.
The opening hours on Google are incorrect. The museum is closed on Tuesdays. It's open Monday, Wednesday to Sunday from 8:30-15:30. I wasn't able to visit the museum but wanted to let others know the correct opening hours.
