Information

Al-Thagab is a fort built in traditional style (rectangular ground plan with a tower in each of its corners). Similarily to Al-Zubarah fort Al-Thagab has three of these defensive towers rounded while the last one is rectangular.

The fort was restored in 2003 and only traditional construction techniques were used so that visitors can see the fort in the shape it was built back in 18th century.
