Filyos Kalesi

The castle located in Filyos and thought to have been built by the Romans was established on a cape at a point dominating the sea of the city. Large stones were used in its construction with the idea of giving it a strong and majestic appearance. After remaining in ruins for a long time, restoration work was carried out by the Ministry of Culture in 2003. The first settlement area is on the castle hill to the north of the city.
