The mud-brick Narin castle or keep in Meybod Yazd dates back to the Parthian era in Iran some 2000 years ago. This ancient castle has been constructed on top of the Galeen hill overlooking the town of Meybod. It is constructed in 4 levels and stands 40m high. The upper floors of the building, seen here, have been reconstructed in the Islamic era.
