Conflicting legacy

[edit]

This structure seems to be being described in different ways around Wikipedia. In one version, the castle was captured and then dismantled by the Mamluks in 1291. In another version, the castle was abandoned by the Crusaders, and left intact by the Mamluks until the castle was damaged in an earthquake several hundred years later. My own sphere of expertise just barely intersects the events around this castle, so I'm not certain what the consensus of reliable sources says. Can anyone who does know more about the topic, help to straighten this out? --Elonka 22:25, 4 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Chastel, not Château: medieval French!
