Porto Palermo Castle is located in the bay of the same name on the coast of the Ionian Sea in southern Albania. The castle is located on an island about 30 m from the shore where the narrow strip of water between the shore and the island has been filled with sand and stones to make a land connection with it. The castle has a triangular planimetric shape with three powerful bastions in the corners. The entrance is located in the middle of the southern wall. On the sea side, between the two bastions, a trapezoidal surface is surrounded by walls equipped with turrets. The rest of the castle consists of a large number of rooms covered with vaults which end in the upper part with a common terrace. The premises were used to house the garrison, while one of them served as a prison.
