The structure of which consists of strong thick walls. The width of the exterior walls at ground level are up to 8,70 m thick on its three sides and 6,9 m thick on its fourth side. The interior walls have a different thickness varying from 1,36m to 3,00 m. The roof of the ground floor is vaulted, constructed with large light wells leading up to the dome.<\/li>\n<li>On all four sides of the exterior walls were marble reliefs on the winged lion of Venice- trademark of the Venetian rule.<\/li>\n<li>The entrance of the fort is at the edge of the western pier and it was heavily protected.<\/li>\n<li>In 1630 there were 18 cannons on the ground floor and another 25 cannons on the roof.<\/li>\n<li>On the ground floor were most of the gun powder magazines, water reservoirs, a jail and several storage rooms for food and munition. For the needs of the guards and the church there was a mill and a bakery. There were also barracks for the guards and houses for the officers and administration.<\/li>\n<li>The name of the Fort as \u201cKoule\u201d, which perdominates today, comes from the Ottoman \u201csu kulesi\u201d, meaning the castle.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Venetian Fortress of Heraklion, Castello or Rocca a Mare, known as well with its Ottoman name as \u201cKoule\u201d reopens its gates to the public after a 5 years of restoration work!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1973,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"video","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[120],"tags":[84,171],"class_list":["post-2007","post","type-post","status-publish","format-video","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-ru","tag-crete-private-tours-ru","tag-private-guide-heraklion-ru","post_format-post-format-video"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
