Minat al-Qal'a (Castel Brouar)

Ashdod-Yam ('Ashdod-on-the-Sea') began life as an Abbasid coastal fort with solid rounded corner turrets, and was reoccupied and modestly rebuilt by the Crusaders as a small defended anchorage. The well-preserved walls and turrets are now a public heritage site on the Ashdod beach.
