The Citadel (perhaps a watch tower) was built during the crusader period on foundations from an earlier period. Some of the cornerstones are rubble-filled Roman sarcophagi.

In the 18th Century the building was renovated by Dahr El-Omar, the Bedouin ruler of the Galilee.

At the end of the Ottoman Period it was rebuilt for use as a schoolhouse and was renovated again during the British Mandate.
