This palace was built by Emir Taz in
1352 to celebrate his marriage to the Sultan An-Nasir
Mohammed's daughter. The palace was greatly modified at
the end of the 19th century when it was transformed into
the first Egyptian girls' school. Today it is used as a
depot for educational supplies. The interior has been
badly damaged and the entrance and the qaa overlooking
the entrance have collapsed. The courtyard was divided
into two parts by a wall that was built in the 19th
century as well.
