Museums at Thessaloniki's new metro stations will exhibit amazing ancient discoveriesThese specially designed spaces will show not only the antiquities found in the area, but will also have maintenance laboratories and storage spaces that will be visible

The excavations, archaeological investigations, and the removal of important antiquities at the Venizelos station in Thessaloniki have been completed and the study for their reinstallation is expected, according to the Minister of Culture Lina Mendoni, greekcitytimes.com reports.

As the archaeological work carried out in the area uncovered valuable finds that reflect the importance of the location and the timelessness of Thessaloniki, it was deemed necessary to create two in-site museums, Proto Thema reported.
