Tucked away in Rethymno's charming old town, you'll find a fantastic collection of modern Greek art inside a beautifully restored Venetian building that was once a soap factory. It’s a serene and air-conditioned escape from the midday sun, offering a fascinating look at the country's contemporary art scene from the 1950s to today. The museum provides a wonderful cultural contrast to the ancient history found elsewhere in the city, showcasing everything from abstract paintings to thought-provoking installations.
