Mount Fokas is a 862m high hill in in the area of Corinth. A medieval settlement existed on its trapezoid summit and later a castle was built by the Franks in the 13th century (or perhaps by the Byzantines, a little earlier).
The castle controlled the plains of Nemea and the main route to the center of Peloponnese. It had visual contact with other Frankish castles in the area like Acrocorinth or Agios Vasilios but also with some castles in Central Greece, on the opposite side of the gulf of Corinth.
Only a few ruins of the walls and from the settlement remain at the lower part of the rock.
References:Visby Cathedral (also known as St. Mary’s Church) is the only survived medieval church in Visby. It was originally built for German merchants and inaugurated in 1225. Around the year 1350 the church was enlarged and converted into a basilica. The two-storey magazine was also added then above the nave as a warehouse for merchants.
Following the Reformation, the church was transformed into a parish church for the town of Visby. All other churches were abandoned. Shortly after the Reformation, in 1572, Gotland was made into its own Diocese, and the church designated its cathedral.
There is not much left of the original interior. The font is made of local red marble in the 13th century. The pulpit was made in Lübeck in 1684. There are 400 graves under the church floor.
