Saint Peter of the Dominicans

Why go

The large medieval church stands close to Heraklion's waterfront, linking the port edge to the religious buildings of Venetian Candia. Its long, plain exterior contrasts with smaller old-town chapels. That scale makes it a useful architectural landmark on a route between the Historical Museum and the harbour, even from outside.

What to look for

• The long church form runs near the waterfront.
• Its exterior is plainer than small old-town chapels.

Useful to know

• View the exterior while walking between the Historical Museum and the harbour.
