Vráchos Ortholíthi

Castel Sant'Angelo is a Byzantine and Venetian fortress built on the highest point of land in northwest Corfu. It sits 305 meters above the Ionian Sea atop steep cliffs. While the ruins are Byzantine and (mostly) Venetian, there is evidence that the site was fortified long before. The last 2 pictures are in a tomb within the fortress that holds evidence of Christian burials dated to the 4th - 7th centuries. The 5th and 6th pictures show burial slabs with paintings above and icons added over the years.
The 1st picture looks up to the walls from most of the way up the steep path. The 2nd picture is taken at the lowest level inside the fortress and looks across the inside of the fortress. The gate is visible in the lower right. The 3rd picture is another section of the ruins of the fortress, this time at the mid level. Again, the gate is visible. The 4th picture is taken from the very top of the fortress. It shows some of the highest level and looks out to the Ionian Sea.Okumaya devam et
