The Museum of Byzantine Culture, as part of the realisation of the project ‘The digital Museum of Byzantine Culture: from image to experience Actions to upgrade the interaction and experience of a visit to the Museum of Byzantine Culture, with code No IIS 5029874, “2014-2020 Central Macedonia” Operational Programme’, created five prototype digital educational interactive applications for young people with the following general themes:

• Reading a Byzantine coin
• Visiting a Byzantine home
• Paint a Byzantine icon
• The city’s port in the 13th century
• Build a Byzantine Church

The applications include a short introductory video to introduce the user to each theme, and a total of twelve digital games (matching, jigsaw puzzle, multiple choice, quiz, exploring, and drawing.

The five short but comprehensive videos, which can be found on the museum’s YouTube  channel, include short texts and a wealth of visual aids, on the following subjects:

• The hyperpyrion, the new coin of Alexios I Komnenos
• Visiting a Byzantine home
• Paint a Byzantine icon
• The city’s port in the 13th century
• Learning about a Byzantine Church

The videos can be watched by users who do not want to play the games but want to learn more about the five themes covered in the games in an easily comprehensible and pleasant way.
All the digital educational games and videos have been developed in Greek and English.
