Lampini 2021 – Church of the Panagia

It dates from the 11-12th century.

“The church was the theatre for a black page of the Cretan History on January 20, 1829, during the Divine Liturgy. The Turks asked the locals to surrender, but they resisted. Then they burned the door, invaded the church, massacred all the men and then burned them. The women were moved to Rethymnon and sold as slaves.”
