I cannot imagine anyone wanting to get in. Obviously, before it was a leper colony, it was a venetian fort. (Crete was occupied in medieval times and later, by the Venetians and the Ottomans). There is a famous castle in Iraklion, Koules, which is also Venetian. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraklion http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinalonga -- Tzortzakakis Dimitrios major in electrical engineering mechanized infantry reservist hordad AT otenet DOT gr |
