Kyrenia - Buffavento Castle
Buffavento Castle has been constructed in order to fortify the defence line of the Cyprus against the Arab raids just like the other castles in the Kyrenia Region. The castle is situated on a hill that is 940 metres above the sea level. Buffavento Castle was used as a prison during the Lusignan rule. However Venetians have prefered the coastline castles for the defence of island instead of the castles onthe mountain.
