Great place to see how the power of the water was used in the economy in the past. The buildings are well preserved and the people working there are very helpful and eagar to answer questions and show how things worked. Really worth the visit!

Nice museum to see how the hydrokinesis was working years ago. They apply all covid measurement and you feel safe exploring the areas. Entrance fee is 4€ that is normal. If you are close it worth visiting

Very interesting historical open air museum. Usage of kinetic water energy throughout the ages is clearly and vividly explained, also in English. The tannery and mill are terrific to see.

What a lovely experience! The place had information boards as well as detailed videos and interactive displays! Found out so many things about the preindustrial use of water in Greece, tanning as well as the making of gunpowder, both arts that have now been replaced by machines. It was also interesting to find out that Dimitsana was the gunpowder centre of the 1821 revolution.

This little perfectly proportioned museum is really punching above it’s weight. It’s informative with demonstrations, videos and sign boards - it gives a really good insight into the times of the past and village life. After travelling for a few months I thought we might be museum weary - this was a refreshing change and highly recommend it.

This is one of the most interesting museums, that I have ever seen. Combined with Dimitsana that is of of the most incredible villages in the Greek mountains makes it a stop that you HAVE to do. Here you will see how the water helped in the different factories, to clean the wool with the water pressure, or the used that they made for the leather industry, or how they made tsipouro (Greek grappa) or the unbelievably interesting gun power mill... I mean, first time I saw a place and the technique that they used to make the gun power. In many stands you will find also explanatory videos. I give 5 stars!!!!!
