Its story

Karasu Castle is a structure on a wooded hill south of the district, thought to have been part of the region's medieval defense network. Sections of wall and foundation traces of the castle have survived. From the hill there is a wide view of the Black Sea coast, the town of Karasu and the plain where the Sakarya River reaches the sea. The castle is reached by a short walk through the forest. It suits those who want to add a historical discovery to a holiday on the Karasu coast.
