From the Parks Canada site:

 

"The present Citadel, completed in 1856, is the fourth in a series of forts since 1749 to occupy the hill overlooking the harbour. It is an excellent example of a 19th-century bastion fortification complete with defensive ditch, ramparts, musketry gallery, powder magazine and signal masts. Although never attacked, the fort was garrisoned by the British Army until 1906 and by Canadian Forces during the First and Second World Wars."

The Citadel of Salah ad-Din or Saladin was built between 1176 and 1183 as a place to defend Cairo from the Crusaders but the fort was never used as the Crusades never went into Egypt. The seat of government remained in the Citadel until 1860.

House at the Erbil Citadel, which dates back to at least 5,000 B.C - making Erbil one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. Since 2014 it has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

 

Most of the mound (apart from one) had been abandoned recently so the government can renovate it. The government has plans to move back 50 families once the renovation is over.
