Fortified monastery of Venetian style with superb frescoes and museum with icons.

Famous throughout Crete and beyond, this 17th century Venetian-style fortified monastery is a magnificent example of Cretan Renaissance architecture. The main church imposes its beautiful symmetry in the centre of the complex, flanked by two small chapels. The superb frescoes surrounding the altar can be admired. There is also a small museum in this monastery with its beautiful orange hues where superb icons dating back to the construction of the site are on display. The monastery shop also sells olive oil and an excellent local white wine.

On en parle peu dans les guides et pourtant, il vaut le détour ! A l'époque de notre séjour, (novembre) il n'y avait que très peu de visiteurs, ce qui ajoute encore à la quiétude et au charme de ce lieu. Très bien conservé, ce monastère à peu de distance de l'aéroport sera en tout cas un bel endroit à visiter sur votre trajet de retour.

Magnifique monastère que nous pensions délaisser parce que se trouvant sur la péninsule d'Akrotiri, où se trouve l'aéroport. Il vaut vraiment le détour! Adorable, c'est un havre de paix où il ferait bon vivre en tant que moine!

Le plus beau des monastères que nous avons visité pendant notre circuit en Crète en juin 2015. Bien entretenu, bien fleuri et cats friendly ! Une heure de calme loin de la foule.
