Menelaos Parlamas Museum of Rural Life
The Menelaos Parlamas Museum in Piskopiano displays Cretan agricultural tools and household objects. It shifts attention from coastal leisure to the work of more recent village life.

Keep exploring Heraklion with our travel partners.
Domestic objects and agricultural tools bring recent Cretan village work into focus. The collection changes the subject from ancient palaces and coastal leisure to the routines of households and fields. Its setting in Piskopiano makes a nearby village walk a natural companion to the displays and helps connect the objects with a living place.
What to look for
Agricultural tools represent village work.
Domestic objects show household routines.
Useful to know
Confirm visiting hours and pair it with a walk in Piskopiano rather than a long detour.
