Khanzhalkala (Khanzhal-Kala), also known as Khanjal-Kala (Russian: Ханжалкала, Ханжал-Кала; Judeo-Tat: Хэнжелгъэле, Гъэлей-хэнжел) is an abandoned Lezgin aul in the Magaramkentsky District of Dagestan.
[1] It was protected not only by the steep slopes of the mountain on which it was located, but also by its fortress walls.
The village was located in the foothills of the Magaramkentsky District, on the right bank of the Gyulgerychay River.
[5][2] In the first half of the 20th century, Mountain Jews from Khanzhalkala gradually moved to Derbent.
By the end of the 1950s of the 20th century, there were no more Mountain Jews left either in the Kurakhsky or in the Tabasaransky villages.
