Tips

The Greek name is a translation of the Turkish 'Seven Towers'. The fortress was built by the Ottomans overlooking the ancient Acropolis. Later, it served as a prison. You can visit the outside areas free of charge at all times. The museum and art exhibit usually close at 3pm. Some inside sections are private.
