MOMUS Museum of Contemporary Art
The former Macedonian Museum of Contemporary Art now operates under MOMUS. Its collections offer a modern counterpoint to Thessaloniki’s ancient and Byzantine sites, with Alexander Iolas’s donations at their core.
Why go
Visit for the city’s contemporary art history and the collection that grew from Alexander Iolas’s initial gifts. The institution’s present MOMUS name matters when finding its official visitor information. Exhibition displays can change, so the strongest reason to go is the collection’s role in Thessaloniki’s modern cultural life rather than a promised individual artwork.
What to look for
Alexander Iolas’s donations helped form the original collection.
The museum carries forward the former Macedonian Museum of Contemporary Art.
