It is the first Radio Museum in Greece and bears the name of the architect and sculptor Antonis Tavanis. The Museum exhibits about 120 radios (from 1917 to 1960), from the 1200 in the Collection (which change every four months), informative, photographic material and period posters. Most of the radios are in excellent condition and operate on various frequencies.
