The village existed at least as far back as the Frankish period and is referred to as ‘Corno’, whilst its name may be an abbreviation of the Greek word ‘koronos’ (crow), or from the foreign word ‘corne/o’, meaning ‘protrusion’ or ‘horn’, after the two sharp peaks in the village.
Among its interesting sights are the main church of the village, dedicated to Agios Ioannis the Baptist. Built in the beginning of the 19th century, the architecture of the church is in the Gothic style and houses a 1734 icon of the honoured saint.
