The Venetian castle was constructed in the early years of the Venetian rule (late 15th, early 16th century). It was probably built in the same place as the old medieval castle. It has towering walls that can be seen from very far away and three gates. One of the gates is decorated with a Venetian lion, symbol of the Venetian Republic. Inside the castle there are the prisons, which are vaulted, low in height and made of stone. There are also ruins of churches and the restored gunpowder room with its huge walls. The view from the Castle is absolutely breathtaking.

The Monastery of Anafonitria with its characteristic bell tower is located in Plemonari, about 25 km. northwest of Zakynthos. It was probably founded in the 15th century and in 1568 it was given to Archbishop Dionysius Sigouros, who later became a Saint and protector of the island.

Damos is located in the north of the main road. It was an ancient settlement which, according to archaeological evidence, flourished from the early Hellenistic period to the Late Roman period. Excavations in recent years have revealed a paved way and on both sides there were houses, workshops and wells. North of the village there are still the remains of the wall that protected the place. Outside the wall (on the north) you can see several ancient tombs such as the tombs with the golden offerings near the chapel of Prophet Elias.

The outdoor area is always open to the public.
