    The Lower Preveli Monastery "Kato Monastiri" is the first thing you see when arriving from Rethymnon. It is dedicated to Saint John the Baptist. Today it is deserted and not accessible. It dates back to the Venetian period.
    The monastery used to be used all year round, as the surrounding areas were ideal for cultivation and agriculture. However, it was later abandoned, as it was destroyed and plundered several times by the various conquerors of Crete.
