Old Venetian Harbor (Koules), Crete

In today’s video I wanted to show the old Venetian harbor located in the city of Heraklion on the island of Crete
Info: The Venetian Castle of Heraklion is called Koules, which means fortress in Turkish. It is an impressive fortress that surrounds the harbor of Heraklion, Crete. The Koules Castle is a massive fortress with two storeys that used to guard the entry to the port. The Castle was constructed by the Venetians in the early 13th century when they conquered the town. The earliest description of the Koules Venetian Castle exists in the work of the Florentine monk Cristoforo Buondelmonti in 1429. The fortress has been restored, and it is now open to the public.
