The museum of the Philarmonic Society of Lefkada

The F.E.L. museum is situated on the ground floor of the F.E.L. building. The museum houses objects that date from 1850, the founding year of the Philarmonic Society of Lefkada.

The museum houses lots of musical instruments, among them a 19th century sousaphone and a small wooden flute, the bands’ uniforms from the past, as well as numerous photographs of conductors and musicians of F.E.L.

There is also a large number of handwritten music scores, written by the conductors and the music instructors. The oldest music score dates from 1883 and there is also another one dating from 1896 (CARA MUSICALE ANNO) that was performed at the Olympic Games of 1896. The collection contains almost 150 items.

Due to the reorganization and rearrangement of the exhibits there are no fixed opening hours, therefore visitors are kindly requested to contact us in case they wish to visit the museum.
