There wasn't much left, 3 walls and the yard in between, so it's a shame that they don't take more into account and renovate the little one, at least. But I was happy, for many years I wanted to go there and see, but only now I got the chance and it was worth it. Castle was built as a guard post and last station before the desert into Hijaz as well as a place of relaxation for pilgrims going to Meccah during the Mamluk and Ottoman eras, around year 1495. It was easy to get there with a normal car, actually within walking distance, not far from paved road.

The last Ottoman Hajj forts in Jordan, located along the historic route to Saudi Arabia, are in urgent need of restoration. These forts, which once served as important waystations for pilgrims journeying to the holy sites, are currently in a state of disrepair. Their architectural significance and historical value make it essential to address their deteriorating condition. Restoring these forts would not only preserve their legacy but also enhance the cultural and historical landscape of the region.

عن كتاب النفحة المسكية فى الرحلة المكية [السويدي]

#المدورة وتسمى هذه المرحلة أيضا بالمدورة لأن قربها جبل صغير مدور، وفي تلك الأرض قلعة بناها في عصرنا المرحوم عبد الله باشا الآيديني يوم كان أمير الحاج . ويكتنفا القلعة بركتان، كبيرة، وفيها العين، وصغيرة تستمد من الكبيرة، ووسط القلعة بئر معين، وعادة الحجاج أيضا [أنهم] يودعون أمتعتهم فيها، جزى الله عبد الله باشا [ف] هو الذي باشر عمارة القلعة والبرك. وكان قبل ذلك- كما أخبرت- فيها ماء قليل جدا بحيث يتقاتل الحجاج على الماء ، حتى قيل كل قربة ماء بقربة دم والمسافة اثنا عشر فرسخا، ونحمد الله أنه لم يقع علينا مطر منذ خرجنا من دمشق إلى مكة المكرمة، ولم نجد بردا، مع أنهم كانوا يحذروننا من برد المزيريب وعنزه ومعان، ولا مسنا نصب ولا تعب، مع أن الفصل إذ ذاك...
