Audio interpretation available for Nimrod Fortress

We invite you now to take the audio tour of Nimrod Fortress, the largest and best preserved castle anywhere in Israel and the Syro-Palestinian region. Better known in medieval chronicles as Qal‘at as-Subayba, this majestic fortress sits perched on a high ridge in the foothills below Mt. Hermon overlooking the Hula Valley and the road to Damacus. This site will be of special interest to researchers of the Ayyubid and Mamluk periods.
