Old Venetian Fortress

The ancient fortress of Corfu remains one of the best-defended fortresses in all of Europe; It was built in the form of a peninsula separated from the mainland, intended to protect Corfu from enemies and invaders. You can reach the castle via the wooden bridge that connects it to Spianada Square, and enjoy visiting all the facilities open to visitors, such as the Corfu Public Library, which includes manuscripts and historical documents, as the castle has become an important cultural monument in the city.
