About

A historic Ottoman-era castle in the centre of Tabuk, long associated with the pilgrim route between Damascus and the holy cities.

Tabuk Castle is a small but historically significant fortress in the centre of the city of Tabuk in the northwest of the Kingdom. Built and rebuilt over several centuries, it played a key role on the pilgrim route between Damascus and the holy cities, providing water, supplies and protection.

The restored castle includes a courtyard, mosque, watchtowers, and small exhibits on its history. It sits in the heart of modern Tabuk and is a natural complement to a visit to Tabuk Regional Museum. Please verify current opening times and access rules from the official source.
