Viran Episkopi

In the northern hinterland of Rethymno, in Mylopotamos, Viran Episkopi is a quiet village of great historical significance — it was once the seat of a bishopric.

An important church survives here, built on the site of an early Christian basilica, featuring ancient architectural elements and features from various periods. The area, nestled amongst olive groves, highlights the long history of continuous habitation in the Cretan countryside.

Tip: An interesting stop for lovers of Byzantine history.
