Museums & palaces · Corfu · ★★★★☆
About 90 icons from the 15th to the 19th century, Cretan masters such as Michael Damaskinos and Emmanuel Tzanes among them, in the late 15th-century church of the Virgin Antivouniotissa, with its carved, gilded ceiling. A small state museum in the old town's Kampiello quarter.
It stands above the Mouragia waterfront at 25 Arseniou Street, about ten minutes' walk from the Spianada; the Upper Square (Liston) bus stop is about 430 m away. It closes at 15:30, so make it a morning visit. The church holds services only twice a year, on 23 August and 26 December. Saint Spyridon's church is 230 m away, and the Museum of Asian Art 240 m.
