Folk Art Museum of Natural History of Skoufas
The museum of Natural History of Skoufas is at the west part of the bridge of Arta and is at distance of 1 km. from the city. It is housed in a newclassic owned of 1864 which was built by an Austrian achitector. In the beggining it was a barrack, later it became an outpost for the passage from the bridge and a turkish customs when the greek borders were at Arachthos. Finally, it was given by the Ministry of Finance to “Skoufas” association. It was renovated and since 1983 is open as a folk art museum with a large number of exhibits (because of the lack of space many of them have been stored).
