Archaeological Museum of Mykonos
A small museum focused mainly on finds from nearby Delos and Rheneia, including a notable collection of large pithoi (storage jars) and grave stelae, along with a well-known relief depicting the Trojan Horse — one of the earliest known artistic representations of that myth. It's a useful complement to a Delos trip, since much of what's excavated there doesn't stay on that island but ends up here instead.
It's a modest, quick museum rather than a major destination in its own right, appealing mostly to those with a specific interest in Cycladic archaeology or as pre- or post-Delos context.
A visit takes about 30-45 minutes.
