Kastell

Frangokastello is named from the venetian castle, wich was built 1371 for the protection against pirats and the revolutions of the inhabitants.

Today Frangokastello is a well known seaside resort  far away from the mass tourism. Above all families with little children are thinking highly of the local beachs.

 

You can come to us from Chania / Vrisses or Heraklion / Rethimnon. Both roads are offering their own charm.
