Beschreibung
Hi, we are collector Thanasis (Greek) and Jacquelien (Dutch) and we run a uniqueToy museum on the island Rhodes, just outside the village Archipoli. In the beautiful stone building, situated in the middle of the nature, we exhibit the history of the Greek toy from 1930 till 1990. In the basement there are international toys, but also a game room with vintage video games and pinballmachines where the visitors can play on. The museum is interactive, with a lot of interactive games, a treasure hunt, crafts for children etc. There is a giftshop and we offer coffee and soft drinks.
We live in the village Archipoli, and have two children, Nikolas and Ilia, who both study and work in the Netherlands at the moment. They will come in the summer to Rhodes though!
We use the museum also for cultural events like puppet theater, concerts etc, Also we offer a program for school classes. We are open daily (except Mondays) from the beginning of May till the end of October.

The museum is situated in beautiful nature, so perfect for hikes. The village is about 10 km from the sea. There are a few buses, but it's also easy for us to take you to the main road by car. We go often to Rhodes town, so then you can come with us if you like and do your own thing in town.
