About Jhansi Fort

A major stronghold during the Sepoy mutiny of 1857, this majestic fort was built by JhansFortRaja Bir Singh Ji Deo, in 1613. The fort was transferred to the maharaja of Scindia in 1858, but later exchanged for Gwalior in 1866. Being located on a rocky hill, it offers wonderful views of the city. This huge fort, with ten gates, was built in order to act as an army stronghold and garrison but was later modified into residential quarters. The fort also has a museum, which is known for a wonderful collection of sculptures and provides an excellent insight into the lively history of Bundelkhand. A statue of the queen (Lakshmi Bai) is also installed on the way to the fort.
