In the summer of 1798, the French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte conducted his campaign against the Mamluks in Egypt to protect French trade in the region and prevent British access to India. During his journey eastward, he is said to have spent one night in a house in Ierapetra.

Kales Fortress was built by the Venetians in the 13th century AD to protect the city of Ierapetra from their enemies. It was destroyed in 1508 by an earthquake and Turkish raids. The damage was not repaired, perhaps because it was so severe and there was no funding available.

When the city of Ierapetra was occupied by the Turks in 1647, the castle was repaired and used for the city's defense. The name Kales originates from this period, as it comes from the Turkish word "kule," meaning tower.

Small archaeological museum in the city center, housed in the old Ottoman school.

Ierapetra is a small port town and the center of southeastern Crete. It's a great place to stroll and enjoy the many cafés and restaurants along the promenade, as well as in the pedestrian zone. Worth seeing are the Venetian castle at the harbor, renovated in 2023, and the ruins of the mosque with its fountain.

Long promenade. Towards the east to the outskirts of the city. Near the old harbor there are many restaurants and cafés right by the sea. Ideal for ending a stroll through the city 🤩

The place is called Ierapetra.
