Having been the home of British high commissioners in the past, this palace now houses the world-class Museum of Asian Art, founded in 1929. It boasts extensive, informative English-language placards and the collection consists of approximately 10,000 artifacts from Asia, including priceless prehistoric bronzes, ceramics, jade figurines, coins and works of art in onyx, ivory and enamel. Additionally, the palace’s throne room and rotunda are impressively decorated with furnishings in artistic style.
To the east of the palace, the Municipal Art Gallery houses a fine collection featuring the work of leading Corfiot painters, a collection of splendid icons, rotating exhibitions and a lovely seafront cafe.
