#### Climb the winding staircase to the top of this beautiful medieval castle and see striking views of the surrounding vineyards.

Kolossi Castle is one of the most impressive relics of Cyprus’ medieval era. Dating back to the 13th century, the castle once served as the production site of this island’s famous dessert wine. Standing nearly 70 feet (21 meters) high, the castle’s stone-brick tower is a popular viewpoint. 

The Knights of St. John constructed the castle and began producing wine and sugar cane on the land in the 13th century. The original castle was destroyed in the early 15th century and the building you see today was rebuilt over the ruins in 1454\. 

Cross over the small drawbridge leading to the castle and look for the “welcome” hole in the wall above, through which the knights would pour boiling oil down onto trespassers. On the eastern wall of the castle, you can spot the coat of arms of Grand Commander Louis de Magnac, who was responsible for rebuilding the castle in the 15th century.

Step inside the castle’s ground floor and look for a massive fireplace before heading up the stone staircase found on the east side. Look for a mural of the crucifixion in the main chamber, as well as a fresco on the second floor that incorporates Magnac's coat of arms.

Be sure to go up to the roof to see the castle’s battlements, which were renovated in the 1930s. From here you can see lush vineyards spreading out around the castle. These vineyards produce Commandaria, one of the world’s oldest named wines still in production. 

Don’t miss the outbuilding just east of the castle, where sugarcane cultivated from the region’s plantations was processed into sugar. Although visitors are not allowed inside this old stone factory, you can check out the remains of the water mill and water tower a little north of it.

Kolossi Castle is located about 7 miles (11 kilometers) east of Limassol, on the edge of Kolossi village. There is an admission fee and opening hours vary depending on the season.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (125 reviews)

We had a wonderful time at the Asimina, this has got to be one of the nicest 5-start hotels I have stayed, and I have stayed in my fair share. This hotel is well run with spacious rooms. The views are stunning as the hotel sits on a lovely beach facing the sea and is exceptionally clean. hard-working waiters and staff in the dining room. An excellent selection at breakfast and if you choose evening buffet an overwhelming variety of choice and excellent quality food. Looking forward to getting back to suite118 one fine day, which had its own private pool surrounded by flowers, shrubs and very private. We had a well-appointed spacious room with a large bathroom. But what makes this hotel stand out is the staff, who were all polite and extremely professional. A big thank you to the lovely ladies on the reception. The extremely helpful and kind Anna-Maria, together with the lovely Miruna, Laurentiu and Valentina. Thank you all for the bottle of champagne, we very much appreciated it. Lastly a special thank you to the lovely and cheerful Simona, what an asset she is, always smiling and making us laugh whilst working hard cleaning our rooms, what a sweet lady.
