Monemvasia is a typical example of a town founded by Greeks, then changed significantly by Venetians, the experts on fortification construction, and rebuilt further by Ottoman rulers. Its imposing fortifications were commissioned by the Ottoman rulers; they were constructed by local Greek masons who applied the art and techniques they had learnt from Venetian master architects.
