Located on the East of the Peloponnese peninsula, the Larissa Castle stands tall above the city of Argos for more than three millennia. The first inhabitants of the area were the Pelasgians and the names "Argos" and "Larissa" are pelasgian. The meaning of the first was valley and of the latter acropolis. Τhe castle was created in the 6th century B.C. but there was a fortification there since prehistoric times and the epoch of the Pelasgians. The medieval castle was first built by the Byzantines in the 10th century. The hill that the castle is build on is 289 meters tall. Along with the Palamidi Castle in the neighbouring city of Nafplio and the archaeological site of Mycenae, it is a landmark for the region.
