From the Heraklion World / Places
Nikos Kazantzakis Museum
The Nikos Kazantzakis Museum in Myrtia explores the Cretan writer's life and work. It calls for a separate trip from Heraklion, especially worthwhile for readers of his novels and travel writing.
Heraklion / Your next move
Bring this chapter to life.
Keep exploring Heraklion with our travel partners.
Two exhibition routes examine Kazantzakis both as a person and across the arts. The Myrtia setting moves his story beyond a city-centre literary display, giving visitors a focused place to connect the writer with Crete through a dedicated account of his life and work.
What to look for
The exhibition route on Kazantzakis's life and literature.
A second route tracing his work across nine arts.
Useful to know
Plan Myrtia as an outing outside central Heraklion.
Confirm the current opening days with the museum before travelling; official Monday information conflicts.
