Panagia tou Kastrou

Across from the tourist office and Archaeological Museum, this 11th-century church retains its original form, though after four centuries as a mosque and severe earthquake damage it’s now basically an empty shell, used to display icons from the 15th to the 19th centuries. Visitors can wander into its pretty courtyard, hard against the town walls.
