Brindisi - Cefalonia Ferries & Routes

The inner harbour depth of Brindisi allows ocean steamers to lie at the quays. This seaport town is important due to its position as a beginning-point for the East Mediterranean. Frederick II had an impressive castle with huge round towers built here to guard the inner harbour. The castle today functions as a prison. The cathedral, dating from 1178, was destroyed by earthquakes and subsequently restored from 1743 to 1749.
