Barzan Towers are a pair of stone watchtowers that were built in the late 19th century and renovated in 1910 by Sheikh Mohammed bin Jassim Al Thani. They served a dual purpose: to ward off off the possibility of another Ottoman invasion while also being a site for astronomical observations. (Umm Salal Mohammed, Qatar)
