The Citadel of Safed
The Citadel of Safed – A Historic Landmark in the Old City
The Citadel of Safed is one of the most significant and impressive historical sites in the Old City. Built in the 16th century by the Ottoman rulers, the fortress was designed to protect the city and its residents from enemy attacks. Its strategic hilltop location enhanced its defensive capabilities, giving it a crucial advantage in safeguarding the area.
The citadel is constructed from local stone and showcases a fascinating architectural style that blends Eastern and Western influences. Today, visitors can explore the well-preserved ruins, ancient gates, and grand facades that tell the story of Safed's rich past.
A visit to the citadel offers travelers a unique opportunity to experience Safed’s intriguing history, which was a spiritual and cultural hub during the Kabbalistic golden age and the medieval period. Whether you're staying in a vacation rental in Safed, a boutique accommodation, or a family-friendly lodging, the Citadel of Safed is a must-visit destination for history lovers and culture enthusiasts.

The origin of the citadel is likely the "Fortress of Safaf" built by Josephus (66–67 CE), although no archaeological evidence has yet confirmed this. In 1102, the Crusaders built a fortress on the site, which was later captured by Saladin, rebuilt in 1240, and subsequently passed into the hands of Baibars of Egypt, the Ottomans, Napoleon, the British, and was finally captured on the night of Safed's liberation.
