The museum doesn't have a permanent collection. So it really depends on what exhibition you encounter. The one I saw wasn't very interesting and the museum is quite small. I was quite disappointed. But as I love photography and as I often go to Thessaloniki, I will probably visit it again to see some other exhibitions. More

The museum hosts nice exhibitions, but the reason that you should visit it is for the coffee shop, which lies within the museum and offers an excellent view of the port, the music is always light, and the place is ideal for reading a book. Prices are OK, and people very friendly. More
