Ramana Tower

Ramana Tower (Azerbaijani: Ramana qalası, Persian: برج رامانا) – is a historical architectural monument located in the Ramana village of the Sabunchu district in Baku. The palace has been registered as a monument of global significance by the Ministry of Culture of Azerbaijan Republic. In 2001, along with other defensive structures of the Absheron Peninsula, Ramana Fortress was included in.

Built by order of the Iranian Shirvanshahs, the palace dates back to the 14th century according to historical records. Some researchers, however, suggest that the construction of the palace may belong to the 12th century.

The internal courtyard of the palace measures 28x10 meters. Its external walls are fortified with rounded corner towers placed along the walls. The entrance to Ramana Fortress is situated within a defensive courtyard. Unlike the characteristic three-tiered shape for circular towers, the square-shaped tower of Ramana Palace is divided into four tiers.
