“The Nimrod Fortress or Nimrod Castle (original Arabic name:Qal’at al-Subeiba, “Castle of the Large Cliff”, later Qal’at Namrud, “Nimrod’s Castle”; Hebrew: מבצר נמרוד‎‎, Mivtzar Nimrod, “Nimrod’s Fortress”) is a medieval Muslim castle situated on the southern slopes of Mount Hermon, on a ridge rising about 800 m (2600 feet) above sea level. It overlooks the Golan Heights and was built with the purpose of guarding a major access route to Damascus against armies coming from the west.”
