The Amiri Diwan is the official workplace and office of HH The Amir of the State of Qatar. The building also hosts the office of the HH The Deputy Amir, and HE The Prime Minister.[1][2]
History[edit]
The Amiri Diwan was previously known as Al Bidda Fort, built in the 18th century. It was later designated as a military fort (Qa'at Al-Askar) during the Ottoman presence in Qatar. The Place later became the official office of Qatar's Rulers, and was renamed Doha Palace.
The fort was renamed as the Amiri Diwan in 1916, after the Anglo-Qatar treaty came to an end, and the title Amir replaced the title Ruler of the State of Qatar.[1]
