Bodrum Castle

Bodrum Castle was built by the Knights of St John from 1404 on the rocky peninsula between Bodrum's two harbours, partly with stone taken from the ruined Mausoleum. Its towers carry the names of the English, French, German and Italian knights, and the castle houses the Museum of Underwater Archaeology with finds from ancient shipwrecks.
