Turkish hands after yet another betrayal. This time it was Lasalle, one of the two engineers who had designed the fortress, and was intimately acquainted with all its weak points. Palamidi was based on a system of mutually supported bastions, so that if one of them was taken, the castle could rely on the others for defence. Without Lassalle\u2019s help, the Turks would have never been able to breach the fortifications.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"section galleryBlock \">\n\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\t\t\n<div class=\"CarouselDiv\">\n\t<div data-view=\"1\" class=\"Carousel \n\t\tImageGrid ImageGallery--slideshow \n\t\t\toneImg\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\tswiper-container \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t half\"  data-type=\"half\">\n\n\t\t<div class=\"Carousel__wrapper swiper-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"Carousel__slide swiper-slide\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"Carousel__title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<article class=\"ImageGalleryItem \" style=\"\">\n\t<div class=\"ImageGalleryItemCarousel \">\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"ImageGalleryItem__image\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hh.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/29-palamidi-7-1536x1025.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hh.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/29-palamidi-7-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hh.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/29-palamidi-7-1536x1025.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/www.hh.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/29-palamidi-7-2048x1366.jpg 1536w\" data-sizes=\"(min-width: 1024px) 100vw, 100vw\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<div style=\"--ratio:75%\" class=\" AspectRatioBox \"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.hh.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/29-palamidi-7-2048x1366.jpg\" alt=\"Palamidi Castle\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hh.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/29-palamidi-7-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hh.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/29-palamidi-7-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.hh.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/29-palamidi-7-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hh.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/29-palamidi-7-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.hh.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/29-palamidi-7-2048x1366.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 768px) 100vw, 100vw\"\/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"Carousel__nav\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"Carousel__nav-prev swiper-button-prev\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<button  class=\"Button \n\t\t\t  \t\t\t   Button--icon-only\t\t\t   Button--secondary--alt \t\t\t  \"   >\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"Button__icon  Button__icon--right \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n<svg class=\"SvgIcon  \" aria-hidden=\"true\" role=\"presentation\" shape-rendering=\"geometricPrecision\"  style=\"--svg-size: 24px\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<use class=\"icon-arrow-left-icon\" href=\"\/wp-content\/themes\/hh\/public\/images\/icons.svg#icon-arrow-left-icon\"><\/use>\n\t<\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"divider arrows\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"Carousel__nav-next swiper-button-next\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<button  class=\"Button \n\t\t\t  \t\t\t   Button--icon-only\t\t\t   Button--secondary--alt \t\t\t  \"   >\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"Button__icon  Button__icon--right \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n<svg class=\"SvgIcon  \" aria-hidden=\"true\" role=\"presentation\" shape-rendering=\"geometricPrecision\"  style=\"--svg-size: 24px\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<use class=\"icon-arrow-right-icon\" href=\"\/wp-content\/themes\/hh\/public\/images\/icons.svg#icon-arrow-right-icon\"><\/use>\n\t<\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\t<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"section ContentText TitleCenter  \">\n\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"rich-text\">\n\t\t<p>The third betrayal occurred after the liberation from the Turks, turning the fortress into a notorious prison. It is said that in 1834, Theodoros Kolokotronis, the hero of the Greek Revolution, was imprisoned in a dark dungeon, carved deep inside a rock, together with Dimitrios Plapoutas, when he was accused of high treason by the Regency regime (the Bavarians who governed Greece on behalf of the underage King Otto).<\/p>\n<p>Recent studies, however, have demonstrated that he was probably imprisoned in the bastion of Miltiades, since each one of the castle\u2019s eight bastions had its own name. According to folk legend, Kolokotronis\u2019 horse broke the 1000th step of the fortress, subtracting one step from the western side of the castle, via Arvanitia beach, which is now accessible via 999 steps.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"section galleryBlock \">\n\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\t\t\n<div class=\"CarouselDiv\">\n\t<div data-view=\"2\" class=\"Carousel \n\t\tImageGrid
