Palamidi

Palamidi is a Venetian fortress on a 216-metre hill above Nafplio, built between 1711 and 1714 to plans by the engineers Antonio Giancix and Pierre de la Salle. Its eight bastions are linked by walls along the ridge; the Miltiades bastion served as a prison where Theodoros Kolokotronis, a leader of the Greek Revolution, was held. A long stairway climbs to it from the old town.
