1. The two aisled Byzantine church of Agios Ioannis Theologos (12th cent.) stands by the village road.

2. Closer to the village, to the north east of the road to Megala Horafia, the church of the Panagia Serviotisa in the monastery of Agios Ioannis can be seen in the middle of the orange groves. The church can be reached by a narrow track. The church is one of the best examples of Byzantine architecture in Crete. It was built early in the second Byzantine period, the twelfth century, and shows influences of previously developed new forms of church architecture which originated in Constantinople.
