The Harran Castle (Turkish: Harran Kalesi) or Harran Citadel is a castle ruin in Harran, Turkey. Most of the present structure dates to the Ayyubid Sultanate c. 1200 but the castle is substantially older. Its exact founding date is unknown but it appears to have been built at some point during the time Harran was under Byzantine rule (4th–7th centuries) and was originally a palace. Despite being rectangular in shape, the castle was in the Middle Ages nicknamed (qadīman) al-Mudawwar ("the round one"); this name appears to derive from the castle having been built on top of the ruins of an earlier round building. One text also refers to the castle as al-Mudarraq ("the shielded one") though this is perhaps a scribal error. (en) |
