The museum is one of the most important preserved Ottoman buildings in Molyvos, it is owned by the Municipality and is listed as a protected monument by the Ministry of Culture. The baths were public and shared by men and women on
alternate days or at different hours and were directly connected to the Ottoman daily and religious life.
The baths stopped working in the 1960s.
