Information about Rozafa Castle

Rozafa Castle, is an ancient castle dating back to the times of the ancient Greeks. It is located on top of a high hill, which gives it stunning views of the city and the surrounding area. Visitors can discover the remains of the castle and its museum. The castle has a beautiful legend about sacrifice, as the castle walls were demolished every time it was built So he asked a woman named Rozafa to sacrifice and bury her inside the castle walls so that the castle would exist forever to protect the city. She agreed, but on the condition that two holes were left in the wall to nurse her son, and now at the entrance to the castle there is a carved painting embodying this sacrifice.
