    Kolossi Castle

    KolossiCyprus1210

    Located 14 kilometers west of Limassol, Kolossi Castle is a remarkably preserved three-story Crusader keep that served as the primary headquarters for the Knights Hospitaller and Knights Templar in Cyprus. Originally constructed in 1210 and rebuilt in 1454, this grand stone fortress was the administrative center for the fertile agricultural region known as La Grande Commanderie, giving its name to Cyprus's world-famous sweet dessert wine, Commandaria. Beneath its chivalric legacy lies a violent history of pirate raids, siege massacres, secret trials, and lingering Crusader specters.

    Othello Castle

    FamagustaCyprus14th century

    Guarding the harbor walls of Famagusta's medieval old town, Othello Castle—officially known as Famagusta Citadel—was built by the Lusignans in the 14th century and later rebuilt by the Venetians into a powerful artillery fortress. Marked by the stone relief of the Lion of Saint Mark above its gateway, the castle is world-famous as the inspiration for William Shakespeare's tragedy Othello. Beyond its literary fame, the citadel carries a dark history of bloody sieges, secret dungeons, and lingering spectral apparitions.
