Few remains of a medieval tower on a low hill 500m SW of the village Pasi overlooking the stream “Kyrillos”.

The location is on the ancient route from Corinth area to Achaea. It has an almost square layout and its maximum preserved height is 1.4m.

Nothing is known about this tower. Probably it was built in the Frankish period between 13th and 15th century, but it could be older, since middle Byzantine period.
