The castle of Parikia, otherwise known as Fragokastelo, is of course in Parikia in Paros island.

It might be called "castle" but in essence today it is a neighborhood in which you can see only a few walls and the remains of a tower that was part of the castle built by the Venetians in the 13th century. However, the ruins of the castle are very special for a reason. For the construction of the castle were used parts of ancient buildings that already existed. So if you look closely you will see that there is no new hardware and the castle is basically a puzzle pieced from ancient buildings. Taking a walk in Parikia you have the chance to see all that is left of this interesting puzzle and the remains of the Castle of Parikia.
