The most significant among the various ancient tombs discovered in the vicinity of Apodoulou is located at the Sopotakia position. It features a 7-meter aisle and a chamber with a diameter of 3.10 meters. Inside the tomb, three urns (larnax) were found, dating back to 1380-1200 BC. The tomb is situated at the northern end of the village, near the Minoan settlement of Apodoulou and the Byzantine church of Agios Georgios Xififoros, which boasts impressive frescoes.

As with all vaulted tombs from the Minoan era, it is constructed of stone without any binding material, forming a dome. Similarly, centuries later, mitata (primitive mountain shelters) were built by the shepherds of Psiloritis. Visitors can enter the tomb through a narrow aisle, although the tomb’s interior is currently empty.

After exploring the tomb and the remarkable church of Saint George Xififoros, it is worth wandering through the village of Apodoulou, which conceals numerous treasures for visitors. Some notable attractions include the ancient stone fountain of the village, the mansion of Lady Hanes, and the remnants of the Minoan settlement at Gournes.
