This museum will give you a chance to see Greek artist Tsarouchis’ townhouse and his artwork.

When was it built

Built in 1965, this charming, suburban townhouse is where Yannis Tsarouchis—one of Greece’s most emblematic and influential modern artists—lived and worked from 1966 until his death in 1989.

What's the story

Known equally for his paintings and his theatrical set designs, Yannis Tsarouchis was one of the most prolific 20th century Greek artists.

Why it's important

It’s touching to see the work of the great artist in the studio where it was created.

Must-see

Tsarouchis’ portraits of his close friends.

Fun fact

Tsarouchis liked to fool tradesmen by placing ‘The Window’, a portrait of a man gazing from the first floor, in the actual window depicted in the painting.
