Eleftheriou Venizelou Square ({{langx|el|Πλατεία Ελευθερίου Βενιζέλου}}) is a square in the city of Heraklion in Crete, named after the Cretan statesman Eleftherios Venizelos. It dates back to the Venetian era and is more commonly known as Lions Square ({{langx|el|Πλατεία Λεόντων}}) or Leonton Square (genitive), after the Venetian-era Morosini Fountain (popularly called "τα Λιοντάρια", "The Lions") in its midst, which features four lions supporting the main basin.
