Pirouz Got Castle

About

Pirouz Got Castle is a historical castle located in Chabahar County in Sistan and Baluchestan Province, The longevity of this fortress dates back to the Parthian Empire and Sasanian Empire. The stones used in the buildings are non-limestone, which were brought here from other places because the material of the hill itself is limestone and silica. According to the remaining works, this building is similar to the buildings of the Parthian period, and the name of Pirouz Sassanid increases this possibility.
