Acronauplia

The Acronauplia (Greek: Ακροναυπλία, romanized: Akronafplia, Turkish: Iç Kale, "Inner Castle") is the oldest part of the city of Nafplion in Greece.

[1] Until the thirteenth century, it was a town on its own.

The arrival of the Venetians and the Franks transformed it into part of the town fortifications.

Later, part of it was used as a prison until the Greek government decided that the view provided from its location would benefit the local tourism and built a hotel complex which still stands there today.
