Outside the eastern side of the city, in the place of Froudia, is the hill of Prophet Elias with the church of the same name. This area, of inexhaustible natural beauty, is home to the tombs of Eleftherios and Sophocles Venizelos, who marked recent Greek history, as well as the statue of Kagiale. Today, the district of Prophet Ilias is a modern suburb with modern architecture.
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.
