Best Historical place in Greece

M	Mohammad Qaddoumi on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The iconic symbol of Thessaloniki and a must-visit sight. It's a multi-story gallery (6 floors) that narrates the history of Thessaloniki, and then one can admire the best views of the city and the sea from the top. Single ticket was 6 euro, while the combined one was 15 that includes entry to the Rotunda and the 2 big museums too.
F	Fabio De Rosa on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ One of the symbols of the city, once at the top of the tower, you will have a nice view of the port golf and Greek mountains. Nice history tour inside. Fee: 3 euro
P	Pan Piotr on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Tower is a relic of the city’s fortification. Currently a museum of the history of Thessaloniki. The entrance costs 3 euro and you better take that audio guide with you (it’s free od charge) because everything is only in greek. Six floors of interesting content and a balcony with a magnificent view. Prepare yourself for some stairs (start a week before on that stair climber at your gym ;)).
F	Francis Esposo on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The cost to enter the building was 3 euros. Nothing is written in English. You would have to pay for and audible device to listen to for the tour. Just FYI is to watch your head. Most of the ceilings and the entrances to each rooms are built for Hobbits. I did really enjoy the overall experience though. The view on the very top was beautiful. I would recommend to see this place.
K	Konstantinos Bandas on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's probably the most known sight in Thessaloniki. It's a nice little museum on the inside and you can go on top and enjoy a good view around the town. Note: Visitors of 25 and younger can get in for free with a European ID card
S	Stylianos Prodromou on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Price for the ticket is 12 euro. And there was a day free to the public 18 of May (museum day). What can I possibly share for my experience? Amazing things to learn in the White tower. It totally worth visiting to learn more for Greek history and for the history of Thessaloniki. Stairs can make you feel a bit claustrophobic as they are a bit low.? Just make sure you have an hour or two to spend as there is so much to see and read and watch(Projectors). And on top you can take amazing pictures of Thermaic Gulf and mountain Olympus if weather allows. Just go for it if you are a fan of Greek history and amazing views. No hot/open soft drinks allowed inside (apart from water)
I	Irina Noskova on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A beautiful place with a panorama. The ticket (6€) includes an audio guide in 4 languages (English and Russian for sure), but you need your own headphones for the audio guide. This surprised me a little. There are a lot of installations inside, but everything is in Greek and an audio guide would help to understand more. At the very top there is a beautiful panorama of the city around.
W	Writing Reflex on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great building and Tower. Not really white ;) Though the second biggest city in Greece, Thessaloniki does really feel smaller - a plus, I consider, for such a historic city. There are many historical sites all over Thessaloniki, many of which are not widely known. On Google Maps, just tap the compass to see these, filter by attractions and distance, it'd bring attractions near you and just explore.
