Leros Museums - Located in Lakki, the War Museum in Leros, Greece is a poignant tribute to the devastating impact of the Second World War. Opened in 2005, this museum is a testament to the weapons of mass destruction and the staggering loss of human life that occurred during this global conflict, particularly on the island of Leros. The Italians established strategic naval bases on Leros during the Second World War, and the island suffered heavily from bombings by the British Royal Air Force and attacks from the Germans. Today, the War Museum is housed in an old tunnel built by the Italians and features a fascinating collection of exhibits that include guns, bombs, helmets, and uniforms, as well as documents and other material relating to the Battle of Leros. Plan your visit to the War Museum in Leros to gain a deeper understanding of the impact of this war on the island and the world.
