The multicultural and multireligious Xanthi
This route is about 1,300 m., about 50 minutes and of low difficulty. The visitor will have the opportunity to tour places of worship of different religions and doctrines, located in Old Xanthi. In this way, the multicultural and multireligious character that the city of Xanthi had and still has to this day will be revealed.

Christian churches and chapels, mosques and the Catholic church testify to the religious identity of the inhabitants. Both their architecture and the configuration of their interior reflect the religious needs and practices that take place. Of interest are the icons, the frescoes, the wood carvings on the iconostasis in Christian churches and the tiles with the floral decoration in the mihrab of the mosques.
