Archways

Night capture in the atrium of Loggia, in the center of Heraklion, Crete.

The Loggia in Heraklion is a wonderful example of Venetian architecture. It was built circa 1628 by the Venetian governor-general (provveditore generale) of the time, Francesco Morosini, and served as a place where nobles and officials gathered and whiled away their time, discussing matters financial, mercantile and political of local concern.

Nowadays, following major restoration works completed in 1987, it houses, along with the adjacent Armeria, part of the town hall, including a specially designed council chamber on the first floor. The Loggia was awarded the Europa Nostra first prize in 1987 for the best renovated and preserved European monument of the year.
