Korais Library & Philip Argenti Museum
The second floor above the impressive Korais Library, Greece's third largest, houses artifacts celebrating life on Chios. Meticulously designed costumes, embroideries, pastoral wood carvings, furniture from a village home, and rare books and prints are the legacy of Philip Argenti (1891–1974); a Renaissance man who studied at Oxford, he was a diplomat and scholar, and for many years chronicled island history from his estate in the Kambos District.
