Also, there is still possible to see and visit one of the key elements of the fortress - a three-story tower, which dominates the surrounding area of ​​25 meters. And on the facade of the castle are still visible family coat of arms belonging to the Lusignan dynasty, as well as the emblem of Jerusalem, who briefly held the family. In addition, one of the main attractions of the Colossus is a sugar factory, which in its time was one of the best on the island, but at the moment, unfortunately, from it remained almost in ruins.
