Palamidi Castle - Palamidi is one of the most historic fortresses in Geece. It is placed in Nafplio and was built by the Venetians during the second occupation of the area(1686-1715).    
 Not only was the Palamidi a great fortress, it was also the site of a dismal prison. In 1833, during the time of the regency, when King Otto was still a minor, one of the leaders of the revolution, Theodoros Kolokotronis, was imprisoned here on the supposed charge of high treason.
 You will actually see his sell and take a lot of pictures!
