Fortress is really impressive talking about size, but the way it’s built as well regarding the one and only bridge through which you can get inside it and the canal which is separating the fortress from the mainland. Nicely organized, everything is marked. View from the top of the fortress is magnificent and it’s really worth it going all the way up, just be careful to organize your return from the top areas of the fortress before 8PM when they close the gates which leads to the top. There is also St. George church which is beautiful talking about exterior appearance of the building. All in all, fortress is really a must see.

Lovely view of Corfu, a bit of walking going up but shade from trees from time to time available. The stairs at the end are in stone and very slippery, be careful and use the handrail as well. Get a bottle of water before going up. 6€ per person the entry, latest entry to go up at 19:30. After 19:30 you can enter to visit the lower part only, with the church and enjoy the nice sunset colors.

The views from the top of the fortress are absolutely stunning. Although it is a bit of a climb to get there (it can take 20-30 minutes), there are many places where you can rest and have a bit of shade. Best to avoid going between 13-16 PM as it can be very hot up there.

Only a short stroll from where our bus dropped us. Cost only a few euros each to go in. Interesting multi cultural history to the fortress with stunning views. Especially if u can make it to the top. Cafe & toilets inside

Quite a lovely place to spend a quite afternoon. The ticketing staff at the entrance was rude but I appreciated the service of the others. It’s lovely during the sunset where one can see the colours of the sky from this high point. The entrance is free before the official operating hours - 8am and post 8pm or depending on the seasons without the entrance to the tower and the church.
