    The Castle of Afyon was built around 1350 BC on a towering rock. At an elevation of 226 meters, it overlooks a major part of the area which made it a great defensive fortification. The name translates to Black Opium Castle. It is also known as Castle of Afyonkarahisar which refers to the town at the foot of the rock.
