Historical attractions :
A lot has changed in Kissamos since when it was the port of Polyrrhenia, an independent city which had cut its own currency. This coastal town has plenty of sites to share:
• Kasteli is a name delivered from the stunning Venetian Castle located on a hill.
• A unique geological phenomenon is Komolithi, tall dunes made of soft clay, located at Potamida, next to the Blind River valley.
• The Archaeological Museum of Kissamos hosts many interesting artifacts from the Prehistoric times to Early Christian years.
• Maris Fountain can be found at a stone paved alley, close to Skalidis street, the former historic retail center. The fountain has been running continuously for hundreds of years.
