Κατράνιτσα). Η μαρτυρική κοινότητα των Πύργων πλήρωσε ιδιαίτερα βαρύ φόρο αίματος. Πρόκειται για το δεύτερο μεγαλύτερο ολοκάυτωμα των ναζί στην Ελλάδα μετά από αυτό των Καλαβρύτων. Το χωριό καταστράφηκε σχεδόν ολοσχερώς και θανατώθηκαν από το γερμανικό στρατό 327 από τους 1.302 κατοίκους του, στα πλαίσια της επιχείρησης των Γερμανών στη Δυτική Μακεδονία με την κωδική ονομασία .
