Ierapetra Promenade

Highlight • Viewpoint

Long promenade. Towards the east to the outskirts of the city. Near the old harbor there are many restaurants and cafés right by the sea. Ideal for ending a stroll through the city 🤩

View from Ierapetra Ferry Port to Chrisi Island

Highlight • Viewpoint

Ierapetra (Greek: Ιεράπετρα [ieˈɾapetɾa] (f. sg.)) is a town in the southeast of the Greek Mediterranean island of Crete and the administrative center of the municipality of the same name (Greek: Δημος Dimos [ˈðimɔs]). It is the southernmost town in Europe (excluding Cyprus, which geographically belongs to Asia). Ierapetra lies at the narrowest point of Crete: from the south to the north coast, it is only 12 kilometers as the crow flies.

Ierapetra Mosque

Highlight • Religious Site

At the end of the 19th century, the Orthodox church that stood there was converted into a mosque. The pretty purification fountain was also built in the square at that time.

The upper part of the minaret was destroyed in the 1953 earthquake. Today the building is used as a music school.

Monument to the Cretan Resistance

Highlight • Monument

The memorial in the town center of Ierapetra, Crete, honors the courage of the locals in their resistance against the German occupation during World War II. The sculpture of an armed Cretan fighter symbolizes bravery, sacrifice, and the people's desire for freedom.
