Private museum with lots of old photos and artefacts.

Roman Catholic Cathedral (13th century), with a display of family crests and ornately painted capitals

Provides some of the quietest and most photogenic alleyways in town. It was built by the Venetians in the early 13th century and remains one of the few surviving medieval towns in Greece. The area was fortified against attack by locals and pirates.

Well worth a visit, with a good collection of Bronze Age Cycladean artifacts and displays from Neolithic to early Christian times—a good place to get out of the sun.
