Visit Santorini’s old Tomato Factory

An authentic part of Santorini waiting to be discovered! Don’t miss the chance to learn about Santorini’s historic tomato factories and the journey of the island’s famous cherry tomato from the field to the factory.
Visit the Tomato Industrial Museum “D.Nomikos” and travel back in time to discover the island’s industrial history and the people behind it, with Santorini’s cherry tomato having the lead.
The museum is housed in a remarkable complex of traditional industrial buildings and highlights the key role that the Santorinian cherry tomato played in the island’s economic and social life through an immersive guided experience.

Authentic machinery, interactive augmented reality applications, holograms, and audiovisual material featuring testimonies from former factory workers bring the history of the factory vividly to life.

The experience concludes with a tasting of the tomato paste still produced today by the same company, and the opportunity to seal your own can using an authentic vintage can-sealing machine, just as factory workers once did.
The museum’s privileged location on the Vlychada seafront allows visitors to admire the island’s striking volcanic landscape, shaped by nature, both from the museum courtyard and during a walk along the beach.
