The Knights of St. John built this fortification in the 15th century to guard the entrance to the harbour at a time when Kos was in the sights of the Ottoman Empire. The castle has two layers of walls, the innermost being older and dating to the mid-15th century, while the outer wall is from the turn of the 16th century. After Kos was captured by the Ottomans in the 1500s the castle was a garrison and the seat of the island's commander. The space inside the walls is mostly empty, with broken columns strewn across the ruined courtyards.
