The castle stands like the crown of the city from the highest point of the city as one of the main symbols of Kastamonu. The castle, located on a bedrock in the west of the city, was built by the Komnenos in the 12th century AD. Only the inner castle part has survived from the original building today. The outer walls of the castle were destroyed in the late 18th century.
