There is a small garrison fortress on the site of Tırmıl Tepe where potsherds can be seen easily on the surface.It faces the Northeast collar. The round tower in the northeast corner rises up to the marble cavities in the castle sign. Northwest tower 2 m. protected to a height. As in the other towers, the round face did not move northward but turned east. The wall where two towers were joined was destroyed. In
the center of the castle there are some ruins and shallow pits. No information about this castle was found in the medieval texts.
The northeast tower and exterior stones are well preserved. Plasters on the inner surface can be seen. The wall of the outer surface is similar to the Yaka, Kütüklü (north of Tarsus, close to the Adana border) and Tece Castles. The barrel of the tower collapsed today. Masonry works reminds the workers of the Silifke Castle.
The stones on the outer face of the northwest tower disappeared, but the same as the north-east tower. The apartment room in this castle is full of pieces of the collapsed wall.
