Fortress of Mystras

Mystras

Mystras lies in the southeast of the Peloponnesian peninsula of Greece. The town developed down the hillside from the fortress built in 1249 by the prince of Achaia, William II of Villehardouin, at the top of a 620 m high hill overlooking Sparta. The Franks surrendered the castle to the Byzantines in 1262, and it served as the centre of Byzantine power in southern Greece until captured by the Turks in 1460 and later by the Venetians. After 1834 the inhabitants of Mystras gradually started to move to the modern town of Sparta leaving only the breath-taking medieval ruins, standing in a beautiful landscape. As the centre of Byzantine power, Mystras quickly attracted inhabitants and institutions; the bishopric was transferred there from Sparta, with its cathedral, the church of Hagios Demetrios, built after 1264. The city was a major piece on the political chessboard of the time and was developed and beautified as befitted its role as a centre of power and culture. Photo © copyright by Brian Divelbiss.
