Together with the neighboring island of Bourzi, which is also fortified like a castle, it is one of the largest castle complexes in the Mediterranean and was fiercely fought over by the Franks, Ottomans and Venetians for centuries. Today it is a tourist magnet and therefore economically important for the region
