Constructed in the 18th century, the Youssef Shehab Serail contains beautiful rooms, a courtyard and some pretty stonework. It is mostly known for the massacre of 1200 Christians by the Druze, which took place during their conflict in 1860. 

Nowadays, it hosts municipality offices and is occasionally open to visitors.
