Birecik Beyaz Kalesi

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The White Castle in Birecik, Turkey at the Euphrates, which can be seen on some pictures taken from there. Some pictures are of a view one has from there.

A text from the governorship describes the former gated as follows: Birecik Castle was built during the Assyrians and was repaired at various times. There are 12 bastions on the walls of 30-40 m height, made of large cut stones. There are different opinions about the first construction date of the castle.

Due to the white limestone hill on which it was built, the building was called Beyaz Kale (Kal'etül Beyza / Beyda), it was built in the 13th century. The Birecik fortress was repaired three times: the Romans (30.30- AD 395), the Francs (1098-1150 AD) and the Mamelukes Period (1277-1484).
