Frangokastello - Crete (Φραγκοκάστελο)

•A place of historical importance.

•The castle was built by the Venetians in the 14th century to deter pirates, and to protect Venetian nobles and their properties.

•According to tradition, around the anniversary of the battle each May, shadows of the armed Cretan and Epirote soldiers who lost their lives seem to march across the beach towards the castle. These are called Drosoulites.

•An extensive, sheltered and gently shelving sandy beach is located in front of the castle
