The University of Crete is undertaking a 3 million euro infrastructure project to improve accessibility for people with disabilities across 22 of its buildings. The works cover the university's campuses in Heraklion and Rethymno, with upgrades including ramps, lifts, and adapted facilities to meet modern accessibility standards. The project is funded through European structural funds and aims to make university buildings fully inclusive. For tourists, the campuses are occasionally open to visitors interested in the university's archaeological museum in Rethymno or public cultural events. These improvements will also benefit visitors with mobility needs who attend public functions on campus. Works are ongoing, so some areas may have temporary access restrictions. Check locally before visiting university facilities.
