The Fort

Though no records remain to show when the Bandhavgarh Fort was constructed, it is believed to be 2000 years old. Various dynasties have ruled the fort - the Maghas, Vakatakas, Sengars & the Kalachuris. In the 13th century the Baghels took over, ruling from Bandhavgarh until 1617 when Maharaja Vikramaditya Singh moved his capital to Rewa. The last inhabitants deserted the fort in 1935.
