Frankish Tower of Liada and Church of Taxiarches

At the top of Liada hill, the church of Pammegiston Taxiarches from the end of the 12th century AD and a Frankish tower from the 13th century coexist. Both buildings contain building materials from older buildings. The tower, which once had three floors, seems to have been part of a network of towers that had visual communication with each other, ensuring defense and early warning in case of enemy attacks. In addition, the tower was certainly used to watch over the lands in the area and was probably the residence of a local lord.
