    The Venetian port of Nafpaktos (formerly Lepanto) in Greece, surrounded by a fortress wall.
    Historical significance: The port was the site of the famous naval Battle of Lepanto in 1571.


    At the port is a statue of Miguel de Cervantes, the famous Spanish writer who participated in the battle and lost his left hand.

    Also known as the picturesque Horseshoe Harbor, it is a historic landmark of the town on the Gulf of Corinth. Originally called Lepanto by the Venetians, the harbor serves not only as a tourist attraction with cafés and restaurants, but is also the site of the famous naval Battle of Lepanto in 1571. Its horseshoe shape and the imposing Venetian castle overlooking the harbor make it an important historical and scenic feature of Nafpaktos.
