Tietoa
Nopeat faktat: Visitors can explore massive stone walls that have stood strong for over 800 years. The castle offers breathtaking views of the Gulf of Patras and the city below.
Kohokohdat: An intriguing secret is the underground tunnels rumored to have been used for escape during sieges. The castle's north tower, standing 20 meters tall, provides one of the best vantage points for sunset photos.
Sisäpiirin vinkit

- Bring a camera for sunset from the north tower; lighting is magical then.
- Avoid weekends to escape crowds, especially in summer.
- Skip guided tours if you prefer self-paced exploration; signage is informative.
- Carry water during warmer months; shade is limited.
