    The castle of Faneromeni is located on an imposing plateau north of Korthi at an altitude of 600 meters. The high mountains of the area are steep and give the impression that the rocks are towering above. It was the largest medieval town of Andros, but traces of a fortification from the Roman period have also been found. The Venetians built it as a fortress against pirate raids with a capacity of more than 1,000 inhabitants. The so-called Upper Castle has visual contact with the Venetian castle in Andros Town (Chora).
