Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

The Walls of Trabzon (or the "Walls of Trebizond") are a series of defensive walls surrounding the old town of the city of Trabzon, northeastern Turkey. The fortifications are sometimes called the Trabzon Castle (Turkish: Trabzon Kalesi). However, they did not function as a castle, rather as city walls. Constructed on foundations dating back to the Roman era with cut stones from former structures at site, the walls stretch from the hill on the backside of the old town to the Black Sea shore. The walls further divided the city into three parts; the Upper Town or "fortress" (Yukari Hisar), the Middle Town (Orta Hisar) and the Lower Town (Aşağı Hisar). The upper and middle towns are flanked by steep ravines cut by the Zagnos (Iskeleboz) and Tabakhane (Kuzgun) streams to the west and east respectively, while the lower town extends to the west of Zagnos (see the plan on the right).

Summary from Türkçe / Turkish Wikipedia (trwiki)

Trabzon Kalesi, Trabzon'un en yüksek kesimindeki kale, Trabzon'da günümüze en iyi durumda ulaşabilen eserlerin başında gelmektedir. Deniz kıyısından başlayarak şehrin arkasındaki tepelere kadar uzanan Trabzon kalesi, Bizans Çağı’na ait eski temeller üzerinde yükselmiştir. Yukarı Hisar, Orta Hisar ve Aşağı Hisar olmak üzere üç ayrı bölümden meydana gelen kale, eski anıtlardan toplanan taşlardan yapılmıştır. Ne var ki yüzyılımızın başlarında aynı kalenin taşları bu kez yeni binaların yapımında kullanılmıştır. Yukarı Hisar’ın 300 m Kuzeyindeki tiyatrodan ise hiçbir kalıntı günümüze ulaşamamıştır.

Summary from Italiano / Italian Wikipedia (itwiki)

Le Mura di Trebisonda sono una serie di mura difensive che circondano il centro storico della città di Trebisonda, nel nord-est della Turchia. Le fortificazioni sono talvolta chiamate il castello di Trebisonda (in turco Trabzon Kalesi). Tuttavia, non ha una funzione di castello ma di cinta muraria. Costruite su fondamenta risalenti all'epoca romana con pietre da taglio da precedenti strutture in loco, le mura si estendono dalla collina sul parte posteriore del centro storico fino alla riva del Mar Nero. Le mura dividevano ulteriormente la città in tre parti: la Città Alta o "fortezza" (Yukari Hisar), la Città di mezzo (Orta Hisar) e la Città bassa (Aşağı Hisar). Le città alta e di mezzo sono fiancheggiate da ripidi burroni tagliati dai torrenti Zagnos (Iskeleboz) e Tabakhane (Kuzgun) rispettivamente a ovest e ad est, mentre la città bassa si estende a ovest di Zagnos (vedi pianta a destra).

Summary from Español / Spanish Wikipedia (eswiki)

Las murallas de Trebisonda (o las «murallas de Trabzon») son una serie de murallas defensivas que rodean el casco antiguo de la ciudad de Trebisonda, al noreste de Turquía. Las fortificaciones a veces se llaman el castillo de Trebisonda (en turco: Trabzon Kalesi). Sin embargo, no funcionaban como castillo, sino como murallas de la ciudad. Construido sobre cimientos que datan de la época romana con piedras de sillería de estructuras anteriores en el sitio, las murallas se extienden desde la colina en la parte trasera del casco antiguo hasta la orilla del mar Negro. Las murallas dividieron todavía más la ciudad en tres partes; la Ciudad Alta o «fortaleza» (Yukari Hisar), la Ciudad Media (Orta Hisar) y la Ciudad Baja (Aşağı Hisar).[1]​ Las ciudades Alta y Media están flanqueadas por barrancos escarpados cortados por los arroyos Zagnos (Iskeleboz) y Tabakhane (Kuzgun) al oeste y al este respectivamente, mientras que la ciudad baja se extiende al oeste de Zagnos.
