Erzurum Castle
The history of Erzurum Castle dates back to about 2,500 years ago, to the Urartians, who dominated the region. The first version of the inner castle, which still exists today, was built by the Byzantine Emperor Theodosius in 415.
Erzurum Castle consists of the inner castle, where the guard soldiers are located, and the outer castle, which includes the streets, streets and neighborhoods where the people live. There is a brick bath and rooms in the courtyard of the inner castle. During the Ottoman Empire, the Citadel Masjid was built next to the northern wall of the inner castle. Kırklar Tomb, Ebu İshak-ı Kâzerûnî Tomb and Ali Ağa Fountain were added to these structures.
