It was repaired twice during the reign of Karamanoğulları and Osmanoğulları. The castle, which protects the city center of Kayseri, located on the transportation passages in Central Anatolia, is a medieval castle with its old existence and additions made over time. The Historical Kayseri City and Castle is built on a flat area and consists of two parts: the Outer Castle and the Inner Castle. The Inner Castle has become a separate castle due to the fact that it is higher than the Outer Castle and the city walls added around it.
