Ancient Fortresses of the Island of Crete







I have completed the third of a series of ancient Cretan fortresses, most constructed by the Venetians many centuries ago.  The fortresses of this series are located in the Chania Prefecture of western Crete:  Frangokastello Fortress, Aptera Fortress, and Firka Fortress located at the port of the city of Chania.
