Join a soul-stirring evening of music and spiritual reflection as the Choirs of Mousikos KarposChildren, Youth, and Adults—fill the air with hymns, traditional carols, and cherished Christmas melodies from across the globe.

This sacred event also marks the presentation of the remarkable work, "Hymn of the Four Martyrs", a tribute to the enduring faith, bravery, and self-sacrifice of Rethymno's Holy Four New Martyrs—Manuel, Angel, George, and Nicholas.

On the occasion of the 200th anniversary of their martyrdom, this collective volume reflects their unwavering dedication to "the holy faith of Christ and the freedom of the Fatherland", offering a profound testament to their role in the spiritual and cultural fabric of our community.

Come and be part of this evening of reverence and celebration on Monday, December 23, 2024, at 8:00 PM, in the "Pantelis Prevelakis" Hall (1 Vernadou Street, Old Town of Rethymno).

Let the harmonies of faith and tradition inspire your heart this Christmas season.


City of Rethymno

You are invited to travel to areas, which are perhaps still unknown to the majority, and which are sometimes remote, but always magical and magnificent throughout the seasons. We recommend our visitors to see our picturesque villages through the eyes of the soul, try the Cretan cuisine, our wine and “tsikoudia”, participate in our revelries and festivities, but most importantly get to know our soul, our hospitality, the safe, untouched interior of the region, the other Rethymno.
