Gözne Castle

It consists of two structures situated on steep cliffs at an altitude of 1085 meters. The eastern structure has four towers, three in the south and one in the east, and is rectangular in form. The entrance is through a single door in the west. The door threshold is about 1 meter above ground level. The structure is covered with a pointed arch vault, and its interior is divided into four sections by three arches. There are five light and ventilation holes, two on the north and three on the south walls. The western structure is a hexagonal tower type with three windows and two doors. There are 15 porches on the structure, one on the south, west, and north sides. The ceiling is divided into two by an arch that wraps the roof from the ground. The ceiling on the west side of the arch has three separate triangular faces. The eastern part of the castle, built in the pointed vault technique, dates back to the Medieval Period.
