The Byzantine church of Profitis Ilias near Mournies
The small Byzantine church of Profitis Ilias is also near the village. Take the first parallel road west of the main village road going south. Turn right on to a dirt road and the church is nearby on top of a small hill. The small church is very unusual in that it has a baroque style front with reliefs including a coat of arms of the Kalergis family (an important Cretan family during the Venetian era), lions, and inscriptions.
