Church of the Holy Apostles

The Church of the Holy Apostles is a Byzantine church, probably dating back to the 12th century. During the years of the second Venetian occupation (1685-1715), a basilica dome was added to the west of the original nucleus, in order to give more space to the church, as well as a bell tower in the northeast corner between the antennas of the cross. The church is decorated with frescoes which probably date from the 16th and 17th centuries and are preserved in a poor state.
