Church of Saint Titus is dedicated to the island’s first bishop, whose skull was once kept in the temple.
Originally built as an Orthodox church by a 10th-century Byzantine emperor who liberated the island from the Arabs, the church was turned first into a Catholic temple by the Venetians and then into a mosque by the Ottomans.
The present building owes its eclectic appearance to the architect Athanasios Mousis, who rebuilt it after the earthquake of 1856.
