It lies 12 km north of Kadirli, beside a newly built dam. There is a single entrance to the castle, which was built on an island-shaped rock. In its time, access to the castle from here must have been by a wooden bridge. The castle, almost entirely standing, dates to the medieval period. Source: Osmaniye Governorship.
