The Ravanda Castle is located in the rural part of Polateli village, Kilis. While the fortresses and castle units are representing the characteristic features of the Crusader castles, the structure has been restored and enlarged at the time of Eyyubi State.

Within the scope of the project, besides the architectural conservation projects, a landscaping project was prepared for the 1st degree archaeological site.
