The Aqaba Fort was rebuilt in 1587 AD during the last Mamluk sultans era and has been substantially altered several times since then. The Hashemite Coat of Arms was placed above the main doorway during the Great Arab Revolt of first World War. Running around the first bay of the passageway is a band of Arabic inscription which gives the name of the Mamluk Sultan, Qansweh El-Ghuri (1501-1516 AD), responsible for building the fort . 3JDFor non-Jordanian 0.25ForJordanian
