The Historical Archives Museum of Hydra was founded in 1918 and it is housed in an elegant stone mansion that belonged to the local shipowner Gikas Koulouras. In 1996, the building was renovated and is now the most impressive mansion at the port of Hydra. Right next to the entrance, there are some old anchors and signs of the rich nautical impression of the island.
