Description

Nafpaktos er en by og en tidligere kommune i Aetolia-Akarnania, Vestgrækenland, beliggende ved en bugt på nordkysten af Korinthbugten, 3 km vest for udløbet af floden Mornos.

Den er opkaldt efter Naupaktos, en vigtig athensk marinstation under den peloponnesiske krig. Som en strategisk vigtig besiddelse, der kontrollerede adgangen til Korinthbugten, ændrede Naupaktos hænder mange gange under korstogene og de osmannisk-venetianske krige. Det var under venetiansk kontrol i det 15. århundrede og blev kendt under sin venetianske form, Lepanto. Det faldt til det osmanniske imperium i 1499 og blev brugt som marinstation af den osmanniske flåde i det 16. århundrede og var stedet for den afgørende sejr for den Hellige Liga i slaget ved Lepanto i 1571. Undtagen en kort periode med venetiansk kontrol i 1687–1699, forblev Lepanto under osmannisk kontrol indtil den græske uafhængighed i 1829.
