The Inner Castle (İçkale) sits in the north-eastern corner of the city walls and served as the seat of government for centuries. Its restored buildings now house museums and cultural spaces.

Diyarbakir Archaeological Museum displays finds from excavations across the region, from prehistoric artefacts to Roman and Artuqid-era pieces. The Hazrat Suleiman Mosque is located within the same complex.

Concierge tipCombine the museum with the Hazrat Suleiman Mosque and the citadel's views over the Tigris valley – allow at least two hours.
