Porto Palermo
Sight / Castle
Kalaja e Porto Palermos is enthroned on a small peninsula in the Ionian Sea. The triangular building served as an important military base during the communist era. Together with the submarine bunker, the fortress was in the restricted military area. It is believed that the Castle of Porto Palermo was built under the reign of Ali Pasha Tepelena in the 19th century. Exact records are not available. The relatively well-preserved building can be visited today and the view of the bay is very nice.
