Ahmednagar Fort

It is a place of huge historical significance like many important leaders loke patel, nehru etc were imprisoned here after 1942 Quit India Movement. But its not at all maintained properly. Presently under Army administration. When i went (june, 2022) it was closed (officially not opened after corona), but still they agreed to see as we were coming from far.

Amazing place amazing city the NAGAR district of Maharashtra state.
A well maintained and established ARMY 🪖🪖🪖 camp is there. Lots of army thank was established in the NAGAR city to develop the spirit of patriotism in youth .

The cleanness of the city is well maintained by the municipal corporation of nagar.

Amazing city 🏙️🏙️🏙️ to visit and stay for well comfort.

I personally recommend all to visit the city of patriotism .

Best with a view of ancient Architecture. This fort is under Army for rest of the whole year and only opens for public on 26th January and 15th August. So there is lot of rush on this 2 days. But one of the sad truth is while it's under the control of Army there is no steps taken to preserve this monument. There were lots of wild bush everywhere. They need to cut this down so the monument will be safer for our next generation. This fort is known for its Fortification it's a marvelous structure made by Nijam shah. Whenever you vist this place, Please don't spred your garbage here keep it in your bags or throw it in dust bin. Save the monument for our future.

Ahmednagar Fort : Pride of Ahmednagar.
Once known as the as the second-most impregnable fort (the first one being the Gwalior Fort), Ahmednagar Fort was the main headquarters of Ahmednagar Sultanate. Malik Ahmad Nizam Shah I, the first sultan of the Nizam Shahi dynasty, ordered to built this fort so to protect his city against the invaders. Unique features of the fort like 18m high walls supported by 22 bastions; one large gate; three small sally ports; glacis; no covered way and a ditch revetted with stone set it to look apart from other forts of India. History has it that Chand Bibi, a regent of the Shahi dynasty, successfully defended the fort from the Mughals many times. But Mughals were somehow able to conquer it. Adding to its historical significance is the fact that Aurangzeb died here in 1707. After Aurangzeb's death, the fort passed to the Nizams in 1724, Marathas in 1759 and later the Scindias in 1790. In 1803, Ahmednagar fort was taken over by British during the Second Anglo-Maratha War. During the days of Quit India movement, Britons made a prison in the fort. Various diplomats of Indian National Congress like Jawaharlal Nehru, Abul Kalam Azad, Sardar Patel, etc have been detained in this fort. Currently, the fort is the administration of the Armoured Corps of the Indian Army.

When I entered at Fort, Army man asked me to see only gates by going up through that old ladder, which in only located at entrace. Inside seeing not allowed to Public.

This is historical place in ahmednagar, front side of fort is very good but inside there is no more to see, only the rooms are available to see where our political leaders was arrested and spend time from 1942 to 1945 like pandit neharu, sardar wallabh bhai patel. Mashid also available to see for public other all area is under army. It is opening for public on independence day and republic Day only.
