The Ahmednagar Fort is one of the most enthralling places to visit in Ahmednagar. This fort is a fine example of the architectural brilliance and prowess of the ancient natives of the place. While the fort was, initially, constructed with mud in the year 1427, it was later transformed into a majestic fort built with stone by Ahmed Nizam Shah I- the first ruler of the Nizam Shahi Dynasty. Re-constructing the fort from the mud structure to stone started in 1559 and it was finally finished in the year 1562.
The purpose of the fort was to protect the city from the external invasion of enemies of the kingdom. Today, it is a historical and natural attraction for all those who visit Ahmednagar.
