Qaṣr 'Atīqah (Arabic: قصرعتيقة, romanized: Qaṣr ʾAtīqah, lit. 'Atiqah Palace') was a fortified palace near Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It was one of the earliest palaces erected outside the old town.[1][2] The palace was built in 1922[citation needed] and served as the residence of Muhammad bin Abdul Rahman Al Saud, a brother of King ʾAbd al-ʿAzīz Ibn Saud.[3] The building stood near Wadi Hanifa, not far from the current mosque of Muhammad bin Abdulrahman bin Faiṣal Al Saud.[2]
