About us

Who we are

The VITZENSOS KORNAROS Cultural Center, based in Sitia, was founded in 2020 in the poet’s hometown as a cultural center.

The idea arose from the need to study and highlight the importance and relevance of Vitsentzou Kornaros’ Erotokritos and, more generally, the Cretan Renaissance.
