    In Ano Simi above Kato Symi, the extent of the destruction that the Wehrmacht caused here in 1943 can still be guessed at today. In revenge for a partisan attack, Kato Symi and the surrounding villages were destroyed. The entire male population would be executed. More than 500 people died. Most of the houses are derelict today. Some appear to have been rebuilt as summer residences. Out of season only goats can be found.
