The Museum
of Delphi is Museum of the sanctum of Delphi. Its exhibits are mainly
architectural sculptures and statues and work of miniature art from the votive
offerings of the sanctum. It is included among the first Greek Museums in
number of visitors. The first building of the Museum was manufactured in 1903
according to the drawings of the French architect Tournaire. In 1938 a new bigger Museum was
built that incorporated the old one. The rearrangement of the new Museum took
place in stages and lasted until 1980. In1974 a new room was added to exhibit
the golden and ivory discoveries of the sanctum. Today an extension of the
Museum of Delphi takes place, which improves the function of the building.
