Located in the Rethymno province, Argyroupoli is a quaint town nestled 260 meters above the Mouselas river valley. The town retains much of its heritage architecture, maintaining its traditional charm.
Argyroupoli occupies the ancient city of Lappa’s grounds, hinting at its historical significance with remnants from the Roman, Byzantine, and Venetian periods.

Nearby, you’ll find the necropolis of Lappa, featuring Greco-Roman tombs, a monumental plane tree, and the Temple of Pente Parthenes.
Argyroupoli’s most frequented spot, though, is the renowned Springs of Argyroupoli. These springs originate in a verdant area just below the village, starting from the Agia Dynami cave. The water passes by old grain mills, which now function as taverns serving traditional food, like mouthwatering trout, sturgeons, and the unique “antikristo” lamb, a local speciality.
Close to Argyroupolis, you’ll find Crete’s largest natural freshwater lake, Lake Kournas. It’s an ideal spot for kayaking or pedalo rides, whether you’re with a group of friends or family with kids.
