PAFOS
CASTLES - The castle of Kato
Pafos is a medieval building constructed on the west side of the
port of Pafos.
One of the prominent parts of the castle is the Frankish tower
with a courtyard which had replaced an older Byzantine castle.
To this day the castle remains as it was rebuilt by the Turks
on the base of the western ancient breakwater and on the ruins
of a castle built by the Lusignans, which had been improved in
1391 by King James 1.
This castle represents only small part of the fortifications of
Pafos... (more)
