Agia Triada Monastery

The monastery was built in the 17th century by the monks Jeremiah and Lavrentios of the Venetian Zangaroli family on the site of an existing church.

The monastery was severely damaged and burned in 1821 during the uprising against the Turkish occupiers. The monastery remained abandoned for several years. After restoration and reconstruction in 1830, it was inhabited again and developed into Crete's theological school. The Agia Triada Monastery is now the largest working monastery in Crete.

Unfortunately, we were unable to visit it.
