The fortress is built out of black tuff stone and is located on a mountainous plateau situated 1490 metres above the sea level, which lies on the intersection of Urut and
Dzoraget rivers. There were once approximately 10.000 inhabitants living in the fortress. The following structures are located in it:
Bathrooms The fortress has two bathrooms, a larger one and a smaller one. They had a heat room, bathroom and a fitting room. The bathrooms also had a dome, which served for lighting and ventilation with clay pipes installed into city walls ensuring the system of water irrigation.
Civic house The remaining civic house had a 14 x 12 layout and 5 doors. The main purpose of it remains unknown, but it was turned into the religious building later on: first into the mosque (in 14th and 15th centuries), then into the church in the 18th century. == Gallery ==
