Five Brothers Square In Nafplio Greece Royalty-Free Stock Photo

The Bastion of Pende Adelphia, or Five Brothers, is on the North West slope of the Acronauplia and owes its name to the five cannons, all the same size, that reinforced its defences. This bastion protected the western section of the lower city and the harbour, in combination with the Bourtzi. It was probably constructed by the Venetians at around the end of the 15th century
