It is a small medieval fortress built by the Crusaders in the early 12th century. It was captured by the Mamluk army under Sultan Baibars in 1271. The building is partially ruined and has been largely converted into a stable. The principal construction material used was basaltic stone. From the roof of the fortress, the medieval tower at al-Zarah and Talkalakh could be seen.〔(Burj Arab ). Fortresses of the East. 2006-03-12.〕
