Folklore Museum of Afytos Building Aletra

LocationAfytos

The Alera building is located in the central square of Afytos. It was built in 1889 by Triantaphyllos Aletras. It is a remarkable example of urban architecture and expresses the provincial neoclassicism prevailing in Macedonia in the early 19th century.

Today it is used as a place of culture. On the ground floor there is a lending library and an exhibition space hosting exhibitions of the village associations as well as various artists.

In the basement there is a collection of agricultural tools while on the floor is a traditional house of Afytos. All the exhibits of the museum (furniture, woven, kitchen utensils, tools) are courtesy sponsor of the village residents.
