Album Info:
In 1448 the last Emperor of Byzantium, Constantine XI Palaeologos, was crowned at Mystras. In 1460 the hill was captured by the Turks and in 1464 Sigismondo Malatesta of Rimini managed to capture the city but not the castle. For a short period of time Mystras came under the control of the Venetians (1687-1715) but was again taken over by the Turks.
