Castles of the Peloponnese

Choose castles for their history and setting: Palamidi above Nafplio, Acrocorinth above the northern gateway, the coastal fortifications of Messinia and Chlemoutsi in the west.

A castle is a substantial visit

Allow time for the approach, entrance and walking inside. A hilltop view rarely explains the full site on its own. Palamidi and Acrocorinth belong to different travel days; Methoni and Koroni are most rewarding within a longer Messinian stay.

Match the visit to your group

Confirm which entrances and sections are open and ask about surfaces and gradients. Driving to an entrance does not make the entire interior step-free. Keep a lower-town or museum alternative when heat, wind or mobility makes the fortification unsuitable.
