Byblos Castle, located in Byblos, Lebanon, is a historic fortress built by the Crusaders in the 12th century. Constructed from limestone and the remains of Roman structures, the castle features a quintessential medieval design with its thick walls, moats, and towers. It served as a strategic military stronghold due to its vantage point overlooking the Mediterranean Sea and the ancient city of Byblos, one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world.
