A water-filled moat protected the land (south) side of the Venetian/Ottoman Rhion fortress, occupying the southern outcrop at the entrance to the narrow sea strait that leads to Corinth, a strategic passage since antiquity.

The entrance fee has increased to €5 (2025). Since there are no tickets and no price list, I doubt that this is an official charge. A visit is worthwhile in any case.

The water area is part of the wide, seawater-filled moat that protected the landward side of the fortress.
