Cretan House
Cretan House Review
A folklife museum, the Cretan House is bursting at the seams with farm equipment, tools, household items, wedding garb, and a wealth of other material reflecting the island's traditional heritage. Packed to the rafters as the stuffy house is, the collection is not nearly as extensive or of the same high quality as those in folk and history museums in Heraklion, Vori, and Rethymnon.
