Christ church Impros

Christ Church (often referred to locally as Christos or Christ the Savior) is a small, traditional Orthodox chapel located in the mountain village of Imbros, in the Sfakia region of southern Crete. The church sits near the path leading toward the Imbros Gorge, making it a quiet and meaningful stop for visitors exploring the area. The building reflects the simple rural architecture of Sfakia: stone walls, a tiled roof, and a modest bell. Inside, the chapel contains icons, candles, and devotional offerings that show the deep-rooted Orthodox faith of the local community. Its peaceful atmosphere and surrounding mountain landscape give it a sense of calm and authenticity. Christ Church is part of the cultural and spiritual identity of Imbros, serving both locals and travelers who pass through the village on their way to the gorge.
