About the Event
On a hilltop north of the Deccan Plateau stands the ruins of a fort. The Gawilgarh (Gawilghur) Fort was a Maratha stronghold that is believed to have been built in the 1400s by Ahmed Shah Wali of the Muzaffarid Dynasty. Clues to the heritage of the fort can be found among the ruins, most notably in an ancient mosque that stands in the inner fort.
