Eleftheria’s Square

Visit the largest square in the city, which is truly buzzing with life at all hours of the day and night. It is a key meeting point both for older people who enjoy their coffee in the cafes located around it and for young people, who engage in activities such as skateboarding. On the Square you will see the statue dedicated to the Unknown Soldier, the modern gate of St. Georgios, as well as the neoclassical building, where the Region of Crete is housed. A variety of events and exhibitions are organized at Eleftherias Square, and during the Christmas season, it turns into a small Christmas village.
