Itinerary

New Fortress of Corfu

10 min Admission not included

Our tour begins from nearby the New Fortress of Corfu town which is a Venetian fortress built on the hill of St. Mark in Corfu in stages, at the beginning of 16th century. The current buildings which exist within the fortress were built by the British during their rule of the island (1815–63).

The Venetian fortifications were later expanded by the British and the French to help defend against a possible Ottoman attack.
Corfu Old Town

Corfu Old Town is UNESCO World Heritage site. It has several influences from its Venetian, French, and British past. Its architecture is unique and not similar with any other place in Greece, as it is structured as a labyrinth of narrow, cobblestone alleys (καντούνια), peach and ocher coloured buildings and numerous antique churches.
