According to the city logo, Kale received the status of a Belediye (municipality) in 1905 and, together with some villages, was split off from the then Sarayköy district as a separate district in 1959 .
Kale takes its name (German castle, fortress ) to the high on a rock in the ancient castle built the ancient city Tabai . The castle was believed to have been built under the Macedonian King Alexander the Great and expanded in the Hellenistic and Roman periods.
