The Orthodox church of Agios Theodoros Trichinas within the grounds of Rethymnon fort., Crete, Greece.

---

Next to the Bastion of San Niccol (St Nicholas) stands the Orthodox church of Agios Theodoros Trichinas. This was built in 1899 by the Russian Governor of Rethymnon, Theodore de Hiostak, during the period of the Cretan State (1898-1913) . Today many inhabitants of Rethymnon choose to hold a plain and simple wedding at this little church in the pretty pine copse.
