The Ulysses Elytis House

The Ulysses Elytis House is a new museum housed in the old neoclassical building at 4 Dioskouron and Polygnotou Streets. The museum was inaugurated one day before the poet’s birthday (November 2) but will officially open to the public on Thursday, November 7.

The private collection of Ioulita Iliopoulou, Elytis’s former partner, which includes artwork, objects, books, and archival material related to Odysseas Elytis, is now preserved in a modern, specially designed museum.
