The Citadel of Saladin

The Citadel, as it stands today, is a collection of ‎buildings, dating back to several eras. It contains ‎various, military, religious, secular and civil ‎constructions that have overlapped to constitute an ‎intricate archeological collection involving monuments ‎from the Ayyubid period as well as of later periods, ‎such as the Mamluk period , the Ottoman period and ‎the Muhammad Ali's period. The Citadel's buildings ‎will always be a rich field of research for archeologists ‎due to the potential discovery of walls or antiques that ‎might tell their stories in time.‎‎‎
