Hiking

The dovecote is not Venetian, but was built in 1955. As the plaque attached to it explains, the Empirikos family's mansion stood here until 1945. It was destroyed by the German Navy. The descendants donated the land for the construction of a hotel, but this apparently stalled at some point. The result is a terrible building ruin opposite, which completely disfigures this harbor district.

At the port of Chora there is a pigeon tower from Venetian times.
