The harsh natural conditions have left their mark on the architectural features of the city. The properties of construction materials also had a significant impact on the formation of the architectural image of the city of Zagatala.

From ancient times, residential buildings in the cities and villages of Zagatala were located at considerable distances from each other and were often surrounded by observation towers or castle walls. Such houses were located right next to the defense tower to provide shelter to the occupants in the event of danger by having a closed yard. The architecture of the city is organically compatible with the landscape of the surrounding mountains.

Zagatala Fortress, Zagatala State Reserve, Old City, Destroyed Church belong to the sights.
