Back to newsA new Greek-language book titled "Deaths in the Junta," written by author Dimitris Veriónis, is being presented in Chania in the coming days. The book investigates crimes and deaths that occurred during Greece's military dictatorship period (1967-1974), shedding light on a significant and often underexplored chapter of modern Greek history. The presentation takes place in Chania, one of Crete's most historically rich cities. Visitors interested in Greek history and politics may find this event relevant, as understanding the junta era provides useful context for Crete's 20th-century heritage. Chania's old town, with its Venetian harbor and numerous cultural venues, regularly hosts literary and historical events open to the public. Check local listings in Chania for the exact venue, time, and whether the presentation includes any English-language materials or discussion.
