St. Michael's Church

The oldest building on the island, this church was originally built by members of the Premonstratensian Order. It was destroyed by the Ottomans in 1541 but was reconstructed in the 1930s using materials from the original building. The foundations of an 11th century chapel have been found inside the 12th century church.
