The oldest houses of the original medieval plan of the kastro.

This kastro is a unique testimony of medieval town planning in the time of the Venetians. Arriving in the early 1200s, as a direct consequence of the Fourth Crusade, the Venetian occupants built a first fortified town. Two centuries later, a fire destroyed the original town, which was then rebuilt. The oldest houses retain the original medieval plan but date from the 15th century. The kastro forms a kind of isosceles triangle: the two equal sides lead to the top of the Panaghia Pantanassa and the third side is closed by the Pounta square.

C'est une petite partie du village de Chora, qu'il faut découvrir en passant par une porte discrète entre 2 maisons. Et l'on pénètre dans un monde préservé, que le tourisme n'a pas encore dégradé.
