the capital of Folegandros is one of the most beautiful villages perched on cliffs 300 meters above the sea. In the old settlement of the medieval Kastro -built in the 13th century- the outer walls of the houses form a defensive precinct. Above the town, a zig-zag path leads the church of Analipsis.
