The Tower of Roufos is located northeast of the settlement Romanos, at the foot of Mount Panacheikos, quite close to the abandoned settlement of Zastova and was probably built in the 17th or 18th century by a Turkish landowner. On August 6 and 7, 1821, a victorious battle was fought in favor of the Greeks in the tower, as the Greeks had been fortified inside it and the Turks, based in the Holy Monastery of the Nursing Home, tried in vain to expel them.
