Built in a small cove west of Cape Meleha, the church of St. George Koumpeli was the Catholic of a large monastic complex of the Venetian period. It was probably destroyed in 1645 during the siege of the city of Chania by the Ottomans. Today survives only the church.
The headquarters Venizelos / Therisos Movement Headquarters
So called the headquarters of the Revolutionary Assembly in 1905, in Therisos, which organized the homonymous revolution against the authoritarian rule of the High Commissioner George. Nowadays, the building has been converted into a museum for the exposition of weapons, objects from that period and evidence of the revolutionary action of Eleftherios Venizelos.
