It is believed that the very first fortress on this cliff was built by the Hittite king Mursil II in the middle of the second millennium BC. Later, the Phrygians expanded it, and the Byzantines and Romans built almost the entire modern fortress. After some time, it was used as the imperial treasury by the Seljuks and the Ottomans.
