nov 16, 385 BC - 385 BC - Euryalus Fortress completed in Syracuse controlling access to the city

Description:

The city of Syracuse has developed in two different sectors, the island of Ortigia and the mainland. Its five quarters were all fortified: the wall built by Dionysius I ran for more than 5 km and its access was closed, in a dominant position, by a powerful fortress, the “Euryalus Fortress”, completed in 385 BC.
