It is located at Solomos Square. The museum houses a rich collection of portable icons, a true panorama of ecclesiastical painting from the Byzantine period to the 19th century, with about a thousand hagiographies of post-Byzantine, Ionian and Zakynthian art. Works by Damaskinos, Tzane, Kallergis, Doxaras, Koutouzis and Tsoni are exhibited.
