Antiparos Castle, 15th-century Venetian castle in Antiparos, Greece.
The castle forms a fortified settlement with 24 two-story houses arranged in a circular pattern around a central elevated area.
Giovanni Loredan constructed the castle in 1440 after acquiring the island through marriage to Maria Sommaripa and initiated settlement efforts.
The architectural design reflects Venetian defensive strategies with buildings facing outward, external staircases, and remnants of gates displaying noble emblems.
The castle stands in the center of Antiparos town, north of the main square, behind the cathedral, with unrestricted access throughout the day.
The buildings within the castle walls maintain their original features, requiring archaeological department approval for any modifications to preserve authenticity.
