Agia Sofia Cave

Hania Province


Just south of the village Koutsomatados, and after a narrow tunnel on the way from Hania, the Agia Sofia cave contains evidence of settlement from as far back as the Neolithic era. The cave is often used for baptisms and celebrates the patron saint’s day on 13 April. A third of the way up the 250 rock-cut steps to the cave, a taverna has great views over the ravine.
