This museum is very small and houses some sculptures from the archaeological site. If you're there, you might as well go to the museum as well but don't be sorry if you miss it. If you've went around other historical museums in the country, this one will only seem like an exhibit at best and won't be seeing anything you haven't seen already.

Small nice museum onsite at the Epidaurus Theatre. Some cool things inside that won't take but 10 minutes to see (it's only a few rooms inside). Most of what was taken from this place is on display at the national museum in Athens.

The day we planned to visit the Ancient Theater of Epidavros we were not sure about visiting the near by museum. Finally we did and we never regret it. Place is super interesting, not small not very big , a good combination with the theater

The intricacies in the design and finishes of the statutes amazed me the most. While at the theatre drop in on the way out. 🤩

Entry to this compact museum in included with entry to the Great Theatre of Epidavros and is worth a quick look to see. Yes, many of the statues are replicas of the originals which are displayed elsewhere, but at least visitors get a chance to see them.

The main difference from the museums at other archaeological sites we've visited in this area was the display of medical and surgical instruments from the Sanctuary of Asklepios, some surprisingly similar to those still in use today. Otherwise it was unremarkable.

When you go into the site at Epidaurus this small museum is worth a quick walk through to see some of the medical instruments that were used at this ancient center of medicine. There are also some great examples of the roof ornaments and of course statues that were in abundance here.

The Museum is not far from the Ancient Amphitheater and is included in the ticket so it is woth having a look inside. It is well documented too.

The Epidaurus archaeological museum is quite small, but offers some good exhibits and monuments all of which are worth seeing.

We visited the museum as part of our visit to the amphitheatre and found it interesting.
Beware if you go to look at the other archeological remains at the site, you cannot get out that way and need to retrace your steps to the entrance to get out
