Situated 15 Km south of Doha, Al Wajba fort was Buit in the late 18th century or the early 19th century at the time of late sheikh Abdullah Bin Jassim Al Thani. It derives its historical importance from being the ground for a famous battle in which the qatari people defeated the ottomen forces in 1893, and from being the residence of sheikh Hamad Bin Abdullah Al Thani at various periods. The fort has rooms on the ground floor and upstairs and is well known for it's four watchowers. It was restored to its original state.
