Al-Ranad Palace
Al-Ranad Fort, now called the People’s Palace and in the Old Testament called Al-Musannah, is a huge mud palace that is considered one of the most famous palaces in the city of Tarim in the Hadhramaut Governorate of the Republic of Yemen and one of the most prominent historical monuments in the south of the Arabian Peninsula.
ts construction, as the inscriptions say, dates back to the first years of the city’s founding, several centuries before the birth of Christ. This fort or palace, from its founding until today, has remained the headquarters of the rulers in the various states that succeeded Tarim’s rule.
