The Village | ||||||||
Today there are about 700 people in our village. Half of them are
“Real Roussospitiani” and the remainder are foreigners or Greeks
from other parts of the island /country.
There are two churches in the village, the old “Isodou Theotokou” and the “Agia Paraskevi”, where every Sunday a Greek-orthodox mass is celebrated.
“Agia (Saint) Paraskevi” is the patron saint of the village,
and on July 26, her name day, there is a big village celebration.
In Roussospiti there is a kindergarten and a primary school for the local children. There is also a Minimarket, a “kafenion”, a kiosk and two “tavernas” for the benefit of locals and visitors alike. At the moment we are fighting to get a regular bus-service to “Rethymnon”. Hurray! Since 29.06.2015 we have a regular bus service to and from Rethymno. The time table you can find in "Links". | ||||||||
