CHATEAU DE MIRBAT
Castles to visit
Read moreMirbat Fort is a massive square fortress built of earth and local stone. Its architecture is typical of a defensive building with towers, a parapet walk and a vast inner courtyard. However, it was not only used for military purposes, but also as a residence and administrative center. Renovated, the fort now houses a well-designed museum on Omani culture.
Next to the Fort, take a look at the old market and its old mud stores - now derelict.
