50 km south of Chania is the mountain village of Askyfou, Sfakia. There is an interesting war museum there, created by a local man, who was travelling all over Crete to collect every vestige of the battle, so as to keep alive the glorious memory of Cretan war history. In the museum there are many weapons, mainly from World War II. The oldest exhibit of the museum is a canon that dates back to 1770, while the largest one is a German bomb.
