Villa Astro is an Orthodox monastery located on a fertile plateau 23 km southeast of Rethymnon, on the island of Crete in Greece. Since the 16th century, the monastery has been a place of science and art, housing a school and a rich library. Fortified by a thick, high wall, the monastery played an active role in the Cretan resistance against Ottoman domination during the Cretan Revolt of 1866. After three days of battle, the Cretans decided to sacrifice themselves by exploding barrels of gunpowder rather than surrender. The monastery then became a national shrine in honor of the Cretan resistance. Since 2016, an art gallery has been set up in the monastery to exhibit works by artists inspired by the sacrifice of 1866.
