Its story

Mitisin is one of the mountain castles that have earned Osmaniye the nickname 'city of castles'. The castle, serving as a watchtower, monitored the crossings between Çukurova and the Amanos. It can be reached with a short detour on the way to the Zorkun Highland. The wooded area around it is suitable for walking.
