Lasithi Sights & Monuments - Discover the wonders of Ancient Pressos in Lasithi, Crete - a magnificent cultural monument from the Minoan civilization era. Nestled in the eastern part of Crete, this sprawling complex was not only the largest commercial center of the Minoans, but also a hub for socio-cultural activities. The city is situated between three hills, each crowned with an acropolis. Many scholars believe that Pressos was solely a temple complex, where people gathered to pray for victory over battles and wars, invoking the mercy of the gods. Amazingly, unlike most cities that were destroyed by earthquakes in the 15th century BC, Pressos remained untouched and abandoned. Discover the marvels of this ancient site and delve into the rich history of Lasithi, Crete.
