It is a white, circular structure made up of 20 columns, and its tower is 8 meters tall. The building has a rather simple architectural design reminiscent of the Doric style, and it shines white light that reaches five miles. It showcases a unique layout, as it comprises an older windmill enclosed by pillars without featuring a room for a lighthouse keeper. It got its name from the chapel of Saint Theodoroi, which lies nearby. It was originally built in 1828 by the British administrator Charles Napier, who ruled the island during that time.

Castle of Agios GeorgiosCastle of Agios Georgios
A 320-meter-high peak towering above the villages of Travliata and Peratata, the Venetian Castle of Saint George is deeply tied to the history of Kefalonia! Showcasing a polygonal shape and covering an area of about 16,000 square meters, the castle’s origins date back to the 12th century during the Byzantine era before falling into the hands of the Turks and finally blossoming into what it is today under the Venetian rule during the early 16th century. After its total completion, this fortress used to be the capital of Kefalonia up until 1757. However, two earthquakes in the 17th century, plus the catastrophic earthquake of 1953, left the Castle of Saint George heavily destroyed, with its fortifications having suffered a lot of damage. The site features a small cost in order to enter and explore the ruins, where you will also find various coats of arms from Venetian families! Visitors will enjoy the castle’s fantastic landscape views over Argostoli and the neighboring villages.
