TORANA FORT : छत्रपति शिवाजी महाराज ने जीता हुआ पेहला किला 🚩 #manjeettripathi #tornafort #sahyadri

This fort is believed to have been constructed by the Shiva Panth in the 13th century. A Menghai Devi temple, also referred to as the Tornaji temple, is situated near the entrance of the fort. Malik Ahmed, a Bahamani ruler, captured this fort during the reign of Alauddin Khilji during the late 1470s.

In 1646, CHATRAPATI SHIVAJI MAHARAJ captured this fort at the age of sixteen, thus making it one of the first forts that would become one of the forts of the Maratha empire. CHATRAPATI SHIVAJI MAHARAJ renamed the fort ' 'Prachandagad' ' as Torna, and constructed several monuments and towers within it.

In the 18th century, the Mughal empire briefly gained control of this fort after the assassination of CHATRAPATI SHIVAJI MAHARAJ son CHATRAPATI SAMBHAJI RAJE. Aurangzeb, the then Mughal emperor, renamed this fort Futulgaib in recognition of the difficult defense the Mughals had to overcome to capture this fort. It was restored to the Maratha confederacy by the Treaty of Purandar.
