Step into the world of ancient Greek technology at the Museum of Ancient Greek Technology in Thessaloniki. Discover over 60 functional exhibits, the result of 30 years of research into ancient Greek literature and the few surviving archaeological findings.

Explore interactive models, mechanisms, and rich audiovisual material that transform ancient Greek technology from historical knowledge into a living experience. See the first “robot” of humanity, the robot-servant of Philo, the automatic theater-cinema of Heron, the hydraulic clock of Ctesibius, the astrolabe of Ptolemy, and the Antikythera Mechanism.

The exhibition is aimed at students, educational communities, and all friends of technology and science, regardless of age. Through functional reconstructions, interactive applications, and audiovisual material, visitors come into direct contact with the mechanical thinking and technological genius of the ancient Greeks.

The exhibition highlights the impressive similarities between ancient Greek technology and the beginnings of modern technology, emphasising that fundamental mechanisms and principles that determine today's technological progress, such as gear movement, chain movement, automation, telecommunications, gas propulsion, and programming, were born in Ancient Greece.
