    The actual title was Castello Angioino, but Komoot has strangely translated it as Anjou Castle.

    In order to defend the coast against the numerous pirate raids, Charles I of Anjou, in conjunction with the reconstruction of the city, ordered the construction of a "palacium" near its walls in 1277. He entrusted the supervision of the work to the well-known "King of Carpenters", Pierre d'Angicourt and Jean da Toul. Two years later, the fortress was completed. Between the 15th and 16th centuries, the building suffered the same fate as the city and passed through the hands of various vassals; it withstood numerous attacks without ever being conquered. However, the considerable damage suffered by the fortress during the Venetian siege in 1508 required a major restoration, which was carried out a few years later.
