The plane tree and the well have been there since the Venetian domination. In the past, water was supplied by the rivers Koliakoude and Mantama. Later, when the village was destroyed, the inhabitants moved south and people collected water from the Koliakoude river. Even today, there are still many wells and cisterns within the village, the most important of which is the well of Anavreti. Agios Thomas’s church is located in the village’s square and is a royal rhythm church. In the Turkish domination this church was used as a cemetery and a school. The Agios Gerasimos is a graphic little church which was built on a rock at the edge of the village going towards to Bryses. The Agios Therapontas church is Byzantine rhythm and was built in 1971. Today, the cemetery is located on a hill 100 meters high, located near the church of Koimisi tis Theotokou. During the Turkish domination, priests and nuns took on the role of teachers and secretly taught the Greek language to the children of the village. The only school in the village was built in 1900. The fort of Koule was built by the Turks to control the passage from Apokoronas to Keramia. (en)
