Fortresses & Towers

Central Greece’s defensive landscape is defined by a network of Byzantine, Frankish, and Catalan fortifications. This collection highlights strategic strongholds like the Castle of Livadia, one of the few Catalan-built structures in Greece, and the Tower of Saint Omer, a remnant of 13th-century princely grandeur in Thebes. From the coastal defenses of Euboea to the mountain refuges of Prousos, these sites illustrate the region's complex history as a frontier between medieval empires and local lordships.
