Patsideros
The present settlement of Patsideros is a relocation of the residents, who came back to the village after the end of the German Occupation, but they settled up the hill at a higher level than in the past. So Patsideros is located 29 km from Heraklion, at an altitude of 480 meters and it is built in an amphitheatrical way on the eastern foothills of the mountain. Near the Byzantine church of Panagia lies the historic Primary school, which served the needs of the wider region in the Late Ottoman period and where famous scholars of that period used to teach.
