Throughout the rest of the museum, visitors can peruse a vast library containing over 4000 volumes, as well as the Historical Archives including hand-written documents by some of the island’s and country’s founding figures. A more peculiar artifact is a silver vessel containing the preserved heart of Andreas Miaoulis.
