Small Tour in the Castle City
Overview of the tour in Ioannina
The fortified old town of Ioannina (known as the Castle of Ioannina) has a unique history. It is the oldest continuously inhabited Byzantine castle in Greece, filled with historical buildings and museums. Records show it was developed by the Byzantine emperor Justinian I in the 6th century, although excavations have revealed artifacts from the Hellenistic period from the 4th-3rd century BC.
