Evcili Kalesi
Toroslar, Mersin, Türkiye, Turkey
Evcili Kalesi, also known as Evciler Castle or Kızılbağ Castle, is a small medieval garrison fortress in the Toroslar district of Mersin Province, southern Turkey, situated on a rocky hill at about 890 meters overlooking Kızılbağ Pond, roughly 40 km from Mersin city.
Likely constructed during the Byzantine or Armenian period based on its masonry, the three-story rectangular keep lacks detailed historical records but was formally surveyed in 1979, reflecting typical regional defensive architecture adapted to the Taurus Mountains terrain.
Accessible via roads from Kızılbağ toward Değirmendere, it stands as a modest ruin amid natural surroundings, offering a glimpse into Cilicia's layered fortifications.
