The village with it's 2,500 inhabitants, stepwise built to the mountain, is not only the biggest, but with an altitude of 2,330 to 2,590 feet above sea level also one of the highest of the island.

Order to destroy the village
 
Freedom fighter Manolis Skoulas Anoghia carries the epithet "village of the widows" because of the retaliatory actions inflicted by the German Army during World War II.

The resistance of the locals against any occupators as on the rest of the island has a long and far to the past reaching tradition here.

During the Turkish occupation time the partisans of the Anoghian area were the most dangerous and determined.

The people of Anoghia were allways highly respected for their musical tradition and all over Crete they have a reputation for their excellent dancers and folkloristic musicians. Some of the best families of musicians come from Anoghia (Xilouris, Skoulas).
