The Catholic Church of St. Anthony of Padua (also called Agios Antonios) is one of the few Catholic churches in Crete and an impressive example of Italian Renaissance architecture on the island. It is hidden in the old town and is a place of peace, spirituality, and cultural diversity.
The church was built in the 16th century by the Venetians, who were the rulers of Crete at that time. It is dedicated to Saint Anthony of Padua, a popular Italian saint ⛪🇮🇹, known for miracles, sermons, and protection of the poor.
