In Syria, in the ancient fortress of Krak des Chevaliers, which is on the UNESCO World Heritage List, a walled room was discovered. Archaeologists believe that the room could cook wine, or there was a laundry. In the XII — XIII centuries. The castle belonged to the Knights Hospitaller Order, and in 2013 it was captured by terrorists. Crac des Chevaliers was freed in 2014 with a high-precision strike, which made a hole in the fortifications; shelling for many days would have turned a historical monument into ruins.
