A purpose-built museum of 1964 in an olive grove at Varia, holding 86 works by the Lesbos folk painter Theophilos Hatzimichail across four halls. The paintings, showing rural and everyday scenes, landscapes and historical figures such as Alexander the Great and heroes of 1821, came from the private collection of publisher Stratis Eleftheriadis-Teriade, who donated the museum to the Municipality of Mytilene in 1965.
