War Shelter of Platanias
War Shelter of Platanias
This war shelter was built by German forces in 1942 on the hill of Platanias, under the Church of St. Dimitrios. It consists of an underground complex of kiosks and tunnels that were used to store ammunition and military equipment during World War II. In recent years the shelter has been preserved as a memorial in memory of the Cretan resistance to the Nazi occupation.
