The Cave of Agios Ioannis o Erimitis (St. John the Hermit) is located in the village Marathokefala by Kolimbari, Chania Prefecture and took its name from the hermit who dwelled in there, and the church of St. John the Hermit inside the cave.
The Cave of St. John the Hermit is bright and glorious, ancient and majestic. It has a capacity of 3000-4000 people and you can relish the magnificent view of Kolimbari plain that enchants every visitor.In pre-Christian period probably it was used as a place of worship of pagan gods. It has been found a head marble of an altar (It iskept in the museum of the parish) and a marble head of a child, as well.In the years after Christ, it was used as a sanctuary, a place of worship of the living God. It was rebuilt a church in the cave in the 16th century in honour of St. John the Hermit. Later cells for nuns and a large tank were built outside the cave, in which the water of the rain was gathered. To the north there are the foundations of 3-4 cells which remain as a witness that the cave had been used as a women monastery in the17-18th century.
