The facilities of the former Archanes Farmer’s Cooperative are a historical site, which certifies the relationship of the area with primary production, especially with wine, but also with oil.
The object of the project is the preparation of the preliminary museological and museographic study for the planned museums of the Archanes Farmer’s Cooperative. The museums planned for the site are the Industrial Museum of Wine, the Digital Museum of Minoan Culture and the Virtual and Augmented Reality Digital Museum of Cretan Nutrition and Well-Being.
The aim of the study is the synthesis and formulation of the proposal for highlighting the space, the reasoning and the approach objectives. This includes:
- The synthesis of the central museological idea,
- Clarifying the mission and vision of the museums,
- The choice of the museological narrative and the individual themes
- The valuation of potential exhibit material, such as mechanical equipment, sources and various exhibits.
