Medieval Castle of Levadia, Medieval fortification in Livadeia, Greece.
The Medieval Castle of Levadia stands on a hill covering 20,000 square meters with three distinct enclosures and defensive walls reaching 10 meters in height.
The castle, initially built in the 5th century BC, gained prominence when the Catalans occupied it in 1311 and transformed it into one of four Catalan fortifications in Greece.
The castle site holds archaeological importance due to its connection with the ancient Oracle of Trophonius, where prominent figures sought guidance in antiquity.
Visitors can reach the castle through walking paths from Livadeia's center, with the northeastern tower offering views of the surrounding mountainous landscape.
The castle features a triangular layout with a northeastern tower measuring 8.50 by 12.0 meters, designed to protect the entrance of the adjacent gorge.
