## Visit Cathedral of the Presentation of the Virgin Mary

Activities

#### Enjoy a moment of peaceful reflection in this quiet Catholic cathedral, which is hidden away in Chania’s bustling old town.

Though it may look relatively simple from the outside, the Cathedral of the Presentation of the Virgin Mary, also known as the Catholic Cathedral of Chaniaor the Assumption Cathedral, has an ornate interior. Learn about the legend associated with the church’s founding and view the large religious icons painted by Greek artists.

The current church building only dates back to 1860 but it is said to stand on the same site as an early 14th-century temple. During Ottoman rule, the earlier temple was converted into a soap factory, though workers still kept an image of the Virgin Mary here with a permanently lit candle in front of it. Look for the cathedral’s belfry this is where the cauldrons used for making the soap would have been located.

Find out about the story surrounding the church. In the mid-19th century, the Virgin Mary was said to have appeared to one of the factory workers and ordered him to leave. Shortly after, the child of a prominent local Turkish Pasha’s child fell down a well. In return for her safe recovery, the Turkish leader vowed to return the church to the Christians. After the child was safely pulled out, construction began on the church building you see today.

Take some time to admire the design of the three-aisled church. The north aisle is dedicated to St. Nicholas and the southern aisle to the Three Cappadocian Fathers. The raised middle aisle, meanwhile, honors the Presentation of the Virgin Mary. Look for Venetian-influenced elements such as characterful cornices and carved square columns. The church is usually very quiet inside and is thus perfect for contemplation and prayer.

Find the Cathedral of the Presentation of the Virgin Mary in Chania Old Town. The entranceway is marked by a small easily overlooked sign marked with the words “Catholic Church.” Among the best times to visit the church is during the annual celebration of the Presentation of the Virgin Mary, which takes place on November 21\. While you’re in the neighborhood, consider visiting the Folklore Museum of Chania and Archaeological Museum of Chania, which is located next door.

Porto Veneziano Hotel is right in front of harbor. Our hotel balcony has beautiful harbor view. The breakfast was excellent with different choices. The staff is a bit laid back. Although there are restaurants outside the hotel, the hotel location is 10-15 minutes walkable to the center area with shopping and restaurants. still close distance.
