Yiannis Ritsos Museum in Monemvasia

The Ministry of Culture and Sports, the Region of the Peloponnese and the Municipality of Monemvasia are proceeding with the conversion of the house of the poet Yiannis Ritsos, in the Castle City of Monemvasia, into a Municipal Museum, through a Cultural Development Programme Agreement.

The scope of the contract includes the necessary museological and museographic studies and the general work of shaping and converting the house into the Yiannis Ritsos Museum. The poet’s different way of looking at Monemvasia, which the exhibition will offer, will help promote and showcase this historically emblematic place. In a modern digital, interactive and entertaining way, it will enrich the cultural identity of the municipality and help attract visitors.
