    Kerak Castle is a well-known example of Crusader architecture, a mixture of European, Byzantine and Arabic styles. For a long time it was a ruin, while the modern city has formed around it. In 2008, however, it was largely restored. The castle contains an archeological museum displaying finds from the wider area, ranging from the Stone Age to the Middle Ages. The history of the castle and town of Kerak is also presented.
