Chor Minor Towers

Strictly speaking, the four towers that sprout from the gatehouse are not minarets and have never heard the sound of a muzzeine.
None of the structures has a gallery, precluding any call to prayer, and three of the four are purely auxiliary, only the fourth providing access to the second floor.
