Places near Agios Konstantinos
Raftis village is located northeast of Gergeri village, near the road from Heraklion to Mires, Heraklion Prefecture. It is built in a very beautiful place, east of the river Litheon overlooking the plain of Messara.
The village is not inhabited since the early 1960s. As former residents say, the village was built either by the Venetians or the Turks. But according to a document of 1414 the village is a Venetian and was owned by Nikolaos Dandulo and Andreas Kalikas.
The lifestyle was traditional. The construction of the houses was done by using natural materials (pelekopetres) from the surounding area. When you visit the village you feel as if the time stopped 40 years ago, since the settlement is almost intact over the years.
