The remains of a Crusader-era fortification at the highest point of Tzfat, converted and expanded by successive rulers — Crusaders, Mamelukes, Ottomans — over several centuries. The walls were largely destroyed by an 1837 earthquake that killed much of the city's population. What remains is a grassy park with scattered archaeological fragments and superb views in every direction: north toward Lebanon, east across the Hula Valley, south toward the Sea of Galilee and the Golan Heights.
Entry is free and the park is open throughout the day. It is a pleasant place to sit and orient yourself spatially within the Galilee region. The walk from the old city centre takes about ten minutes uphill.
