The Venetian Castle of Nafpaktos, Naupactus

Amazing view that you can't miss! It's one of the best reserved castles of Greece and that's another reason to visit it. We would appreciate some more guidance or historical information displayed around the place, though. Other than that, it's a great feeling to be up there!

Quite an unique and interesting castle, with stunning views of the straights of Corinth. Entry is quite cheap and toilet facilties are available. Information inside is limited, but it is in English and gives a concise history of the castle.

Take some exercise and walk up from the town. Plenty of alleys to get lost in but just keep heading up. You will be rewarded with some great history and stunning views. A couple of cafes on the way down or up

The Castle occupies a commanding position high above the Nafpactos town. I went there by car, wouldn't suggest walking up to it. Entered at around 6 PM and had the entire site for myself - I was the only visitor there so chatted with a lady selling tickets. The origins of the castle date back to ancient era with more extensions during the Byzantines. Most of what we see today is done by the Venetians, hence the name, while after them the Ottomans conquered it. Fantastic views of entire region, including the imposing Rio-Antirio bridge in the distance and Peloponnese across. Entry fee only 3 Euros, plenty of parking in front

A beautiful Castle of a past era and time. There are some well preserved walls and ruins at site. The price of the ticket is really low and I really can't find any excuse for anyone coming to the region and not paying a visit to it. Just please do check out the operating hours so it's not closed when you do.
