Remarkable fortifications in the city of Corfu Chora.

This "old fort" was considered ideal for building a fortified town. Easy to defend and overlooking the sea, it can be used as a checkpoint to observe the comings and goings on the coast. On the north side of the acropolis, you will see a small artificial harbour. The first fortifications were built by the Byzantines at the beginning of the 8th century. At XVIe siècle, threatened by the Ottomans, the Corfiotes erected additional towers, the west gate, a second moat and a third defensive line around the two peaks.

VIEUX FORT A CORFOU VILLE
Beau fort avec de très belles vues sur la ville et la mer. Il ne faut pas manquer une petite plage à l’intérieur du fort et la possibilité de baignade.
