Aleppo
قلعة نجم هي قلعة تقع على تل يعلو نهر الفرات بالقرب من منبج، شمال شرقي حلب. وقد حمى حصنٌ هذا المعبر النهري منذ العصور الإسلامية المبكرة، وأعاد الملك الظاهر…
Qal'at Najm is a castle on a hill above the Euphrates near Manbij, north-east of Aleppo. A fortress has guarded this river crossing since early Islamic times, and the castle seen today was largely rebuilt in the early thirteenth century by al-Malik al-Zahir Ghazi, the Ayyubid ruler of Aleppo and son of Salah al-Din. Its walls and gate are well preserved, and it looks out over the river and the farmland around it. It is one of the finest Ayyubid castles in northern Syria.
