Tourist spot in Ahmednagar- Ahmednagar Fort
If you are in Ahemadnagar, do not miss the famous and once impregnable Ahmednagar Fort. Located on Bhingar River some 120 km from Pune, this Fort was built by and served as the headquarters of the Ahmednagar Sultanate. It has been under control of the Mughals, Hyderabad Nizams, Marathas and the East India Company at various points in time. It was used as a Jail by British to imprison Nehru who wrote Discovery of India here and Maulana Abdul Kalam Azad. Why this Fort was considered impregnable in medieval times? Though the height of this fort is just 18 meters, it had defensive engineering mechanisms that included 30 mtr by a 6ft moat and a Glacis that disrupted enemy’s direct attack. Other features include 24 bastions, small mosques, a museum, and drawbridges. The fort was strong and its defenders braver. At one point in time, the Reagent Princess Chand Bibi stood up and defended the Fort against multiple attacks of the mighty Mughal empire. The Fort was lost finally, not because of its weakness but due to treachery and internal disputes.
