Saint Minas Holy Cathedral

A beautiful and peaceful place to visit in Heraklion. The cathedral is stunning, both inside and out. It’s a perfect spot to admire the architecture and take in the serene atmosphere. After exploring, it’s a great area to enjoy the view, have some delicious food, and relax with a glass of wine at one of the nearby cafés.

A beautiful Cathedral but currently there's renovation work happening inside. There's also a beautiful small chapel next to the cathedral.

They are renovating so you can only enter the first part of the Cathedral. It stil gives a decent view of the painted ceilings.

I’ve visited many Orthodox churches, and this one was among the most beautiful. Unfortunately, I didn’t have enough time to fully soak in the atmosphere, but I’m definitely planning to return in the future.

Beautiful cathedral, stunning architecture and nice design inside and outside the cathedral.

Exceptional Cathedral in Heraklion, incredibly beautiful inside - it was nice to see everyone (all the tourists) that were there showing respect whilst in the Cathedral (covering shoulders/removing hats, no camera flashes etc). We choose a good day!

Definitely worth a visit. Some amazing biblical artwork.

Nice church with a wonderful paintings. Usually there's no queue and entrance is free. It's quite freshy inside during the hot weather.
