The Historical and Folklore Museum of Arnea in Halkidiki is located in the centre of the town. It is housed in a two-storey house of the 18th century, which was owned by Konstantinos Katsangelos. This building was renovated and opened as a museum in summer 1999. The ground floor of the museum hosts a display of agricultural instruments, equipment for bread-making, bee-keeping equipment and carpentry equipment. On the first floor, there are house tools, including a loom, spinning wheel, utensils for preparing and serving coffee and many cooking utensils. The most important exhibit of the museum is a 200-year-old fire engine, based on the force-pump invented by the ancient Greek mechanic Ctesibius (285-220 BC).
