The village of Male Sadove is located 25 kilometers south of Bakhchysarai, near Albat. Before the forced deportation of Crimean Tatars by Soviet occupiers from Crimea to Central Asia in 1944, the village was called Kyuchyuk-Syuyren.
Here are the ruins of the medieval Suren fortress.

Syuren Tower
Castle / fortress
The Syuren tower is part of the medieval fortification of Syuren in the southeastern part of the Kule-Burun mountain on the left bank of the Belbek river near the village of Male Sadove.
From the 8th century there was a Byzantine fortress here, which from the 13th century began to take on the features of a small town. The Syuren fortress was one of the outposts of the ancient principality of Feodoro with its capital in Mangup.
The Syuren Tower has preserved its domed ceiling with traces of fresco painting.
From the top of the plateau there are breathtaking views of the surrounding area.
