A must visit in Corfu town!
"Welcome! Please, come in! The Count will be with you presently. He hopes you will join him and the Countess in the drawing room for tea." This is what you would hear at Casa Parlante, the most alive historical museum in Corfu. A 19th century noble mansion comes to life with stories to tell. In the unique architectural setting of a classical mansion in the historic Old town of Corfu, the everyday life of the island's 19th century nobility is recreated. Through animated figures, using robotic technology, and the perfect reproduction of decor and furnishing, Casa Parlante promises to deliver you a true insight into bygone Corfu. Awakening all your senses, the traditions of the island unfold in front of you, depicting family life in an authentic experience of sights, sounds and smells. Before your eyes the house will come to life... Listen to the children of the family playing music, smell the aromas of the cook's virtuosic cuisine, read the headlines of the Count's newspaper... Casa Parlante is a unique museum: it brings history to life and lets the visitor breathe it in.

Interesting Insight into 19th Century Corfiot Aristocratic Life
They provide guided tours in different languages and a welcome drink, of rose liqueur, and a sweet. Your are guided around 10 rooms in a Corfiot aristocratic home set in the mid 1800’s. The tour guide was really knowledgeable and friendly. Each room is decorated with period furniture and also contains mannequins, some of which move! These added to the enjoyment although the old lady in the rocking chair is straight out of a horror film.

Immersive historical experience
Im not a fan of XIX century but we gave it a chance. Very atmospheric, educational trip, short enough to not get You bored. I forgot our guides name but she was a young woman from Thessaloniki. She handled the Tour like a pro, well informed on the topic, answering all our questions and also throwing in Her own thoughts. This worker deserves some recognition from the Museum owners! Must see in Corfu Town
