The Old Town of Rethymno

Although rich with history dating back to antiquity, Rethymno's growth began during the Venetian rule of Crete, when it became the seat of the Latin Diocese of Retimo, then Retimo-Ario. With buildings dating back to the 16th century, the narrow streets of Rethymno will travel you back to an era long bygone, an era of arched and ornate doorframes, narrow and picturesque alleyways and adorned fountains. Amongst its most notable sights we find the Venetian-era citadel, the Fortezza, the Neradje Mosque, the Great Gate and the Loggia. Showcasing a blend of architectural styles from its long and fascinating history, the Old Town of Rethymno will mesmerise you with its beauty while offering a selection of cafes, bars and restaurants catering for all tastes and budgets.
