The Castle of Monolithos is situated on a cliff near the village of Monolithos. It is one of the four main castles of Rhodes and was built in the 14th century by the Knights. The most beautiful feature is the view from the castle, of the sea, the Akramytis mountains and the village of Monolithos. Over the years, the castle has been ruined but has a great history to display.
Its role was to protect the area from pirate invasions. In the centre is a Saint Panteleimon and another smaller chapel for Saint George. You will also find old cisterns used to collect water and supply it to the entire area.
