Kastri

Kalymnos - KastriIn the northeast of the coastal settlement Emporios there is a fortress from the Hellenistic Age, Kastri with strong walls, two defence towers and a gate.
In Kastri operated an olive press and this is obvious from the ruins of ancient olive presses located west. Kastri was built for shelter in emergency situations. Its position offers efficient observation of the surrounding area as well as the sea.
