About this property
Byzantine Home in the Castle
The village was approximately built in the 12th century during the Byzantine era in Castle to Protect its Citizens from the Pirates.The architecture of the settlement with its narrow streets and perimetric fortification served to repel pirate raids in the following future.The street plan of the village is pentagonical and its many narrow roads inside the fortifications give the impression of a labyrinth. The fortifications were reinforced during theGenoese era in Chios, between 1346 and 1566. The church of the Older Taxiarchi that is located in the centre of the village was built in 1794. A lot of villagers of Mesta were killed or captured during the Chios massacre. Some of them were released after a while because the mastic agriculture was important for the Ottomans.
