Miletus Museum

The Miletos Museum Directorate is located in the ancient city of Aydin province, Didim district, near the village of Balat. The static structure of the museum building, which was opened in 1973, deteriorated over time. Due to the danger of this situation in terms of the safety of life and property, he was closed to visit. Following the closure of the old museum building, work was started on the construction of the new building, which has a usage area of 1200 square meters, was put into service in 2011. The closed exhibition area is located within the museum Administrative Building. The finds of the ancient city of Miletos, the ancient city of Priene and the Temple of Apollo in Didim are exhibited in an area of approximately 600 square meters. Please thank you for having these works.

Excellent way to spend a few hours

Cool historical place. Museum and ruins in one place! Not so big but very interesting. Recommend to visit

Small but excellent museum. The displays are arranged by item type rather than by timeline. It would be nice to get a better sense of deep antiquity and those stories versus the more recent items.

Excellent city to visit. The theatre is better than the one at ephesus. Pity the Germans took the gate to the agora , to Berlin

Interesting but quite small for the impressive city that it represents. I guess most of Miletus hasn’t been excavated or it has been pillaged. It is quite sad to see the existing situation of the archeological place.

This museum is very clean and has a great collection of artifacts found on the region. It shows artifacts from different periods of time throughout history. It's not overwhelming.

Museum is good. Theater at Miletos is impressive, but the rest of the ruins are somewhat disappointing. Ruins at nearby Priene gives a better impression of what an ancient town town must of have been like.
