Location information

Trapeza Cave

  The Trapeza Cave (Spileo Trapezas) is 10 minutes by foot from the road that circles around Lassithi Plateau. The marked path is to the east of the village of Tzermiado off the main road. This cave was a place of worship during Neolithic, Minoan, Hellenistic, and Byzantine times. However, the importance of this cave declined as the Dikteon Cave was used for worship during the Prepalatial Period.
