Visiting the olive museum in Corfu

[greggd12]

Has anyone visited the olive museum in Corfu? A buddy of mine told me about it...I had no idea olives were such a big deal LOL. Here's a pic he took of a some super lush olive tree branches he took. I'm adding it to my list, anyone else?

How beautiful! The museum looks amazing, i'll totally visit next time I'm in Corfu! Aparently there's artifacts from the 1600's, so cool https://www.tripadvisor.ca/Attracti..._Oil_Press-Vraganiotika_Corfu_Ionian_Isl.html

This sounds like such a good place to visit and learn about the agriculture of Greece! Olives and olive oil are so important to the people and to the economy

I have never been but I would love to go. I went to a small olive museum on Crete and that was fascinating. It gave the history of olives and the museum even had an old olive oil press.
