  • R. Samizay (1981): Islamic Architecture in Herat, S. 20: „This large clay fort, located near the center of town, presently houses the offices of local government. From all evidence it seems that the fort was built during the reign of Abdur Rahman Khan during the 19th Century, but until further investigations, firm opinions regarding construction date of the fort are hard to express. From what remains in the form of ruins inside the fort, it is clear that the fort was the residence of a governor as well as his administrative outpost. In addition to the residence and administrative offices, the fort has had servant quarters and a mosque as well.“; S. 21-22: Pläne und Abbildungen.
