Old Fortress Corfu
The Old Fortress (Palaio Frourio) is a Venetian citadel on a rocky promontory connected to Corfu Town by a bridge over a moat. Entry is a modest fee. The ramparts offer views over the town, the Ionian Sea, and the Albanian coast. The fortress hosts occasional concerts and events. Budget travelers pay the small ticket and climb to the highest point for views that cover the entire eastern coastline of Corfu.
