Navarino Castle Traditional Cache

Greatland Reviewer: Γειά σας.

Αυτή η ιστοσελίδα έχει αρχειοθετηθεί λόγω έλλειψης αντίδρασης, μετά από μυνήματα που στάλθηκαν σχετικά με προβλήματα στην κρύπτη. Αν επιθυμεί ο ιδιοκτήτης, την επαναενεργοποίηση της, μπορεί να έλθει σε επαφή μαζι μου μέσω του profile μου, το συντομότερο δυνατό ,πριν μια νέα κρύπτη τοποθετηθεί στην περιοχή της.

Σημειώστε οτι η επαναενεργοποίηση μιάς κρύπτης απαιτεί την ίδια διαδικασία με τον έλεγχο νέας κρύπτης και θα ισχύουν οι τρέχοντες κανόνες.

Με εκτίμηση,

Geocache Description:


Navarino castle

Navarino castle was built around 1208 by the Frankish Villehardouin family at the entrance to the bay of Navarino, the largest natural harbour in the Peloponnese.

The castle is ruin, but the outside walls and defensive towers are saved and in a good condition.

Navarino castle lost it's importance when in 1573 the Turks built a new fortress (Neokastro) at the southern entrance of the Navarino bay.

Below the castle, in the cliff just above Voidokilia, you find a cave referred to as Nestor’s cave by ancient Greek traveller Pausanias; according to Greek mythology, it was there that Hermes hid the cattle he had stolen from his brother, Apollo; However, the latter found out and as a penance Hermes offered him a lyre made of tortoise shell.

Please remember to bring your own pen.
