We went to see the famous house and the stories are wonderful. The history of the Island from many years ago gives you an idea of the way it was. Worth it.

If you want to understand a little more about what island life was like, a visit to Pamadiamantis' house is a must. His stories of life on the island are beautiful and reflect life on the island 150 years ago. His house, although small, is beautifully preserved and gives an insight in to how people lived on the island. Well... More

Go in see this great mans house, hear the story. If nothing else except Kastro this is the main famous part of the island apart from the Mamma Mia thing. If you don't like history don't go!,

A little surprise in the centre of Skiathos town. So much information about the poet and author who grew up in the area, and returned to rest at the end of his life. The House is beautifully preserved, and there is an abundance of information available regarding the life of Alexandros Papadiamantis
