      Built in the early Byzantine period. In 1191, the wedding ceremony of King Richard the Lionheart and the daughter of the King of Navarre took place here. The city was later occupied by the Turks in 1570 and subsequently became a British colony. Various eras have left their mark on the ancient fortress, resulting in a complex architectural style. It now serves as a medieval museum, primarily showcasing artifacts from the Middle Ages.
