In the video below you can see the pictures presenting the fortress located in Paleokastro, which is about 9 km west of Heraklion . This fortress was one of the elements of the network of fortifications created by the Venetians in Crete. In the intention of the creators built fortifications were to allow for effective defense against the growing strength of the Ottoman Empire. The following years, unfortunately, showed that the hopes for strengthening built with such a large amount of money were not exactly right. Until today, a significant part of the then strongholds survived in the form of ruins. It is no different in the case of the Paleokastro fortress.
