After the victorious First Siege of Krujë the League of Lezhë decided to increase the fortifications for use against the Ottoman Empire.

Skanderbeg chose the cape of Rodon as the location of the castle and construction began in 1450.

[2] When the Siege of Krujë started in 1466 Skanderbeg retreated to Rodoni Castle from where he and his family, together with many people from Albania, were transported to Brindisi in 14 ships.

As a result of the corrosive action of the sea waves, some of the walls are now under the waters of the Adriatic.

Today the visitors can see the outer walls on the right side and the tower at the place they intersect.
