Κάστρο Σαράντα Κολώνες
A Byzantine fort in Paphos Archaeological Park, named for forty ancient granite columns.
From Paphos2.4 km
About Saranta Kolones
Saranta Kolones, forty columns castle in Greek, takes its name from ancient granite columns found scattered across the site, likely salvaged from a Roman marketplace. Byzantine builders raised the fort around 700 AD to guard Paphos harbour against Arab raids; the Lusignans later modified it. A 115-foot square courtyard, four corner towers and a horseshoe-shaped gate tower survive within walls nearly ten feet thick. A 1222 earthquake brought it down for good, and it was never rebuilt.
