Originally built by Bichi Raja of the Ratta Dynasty, this fort has witnessed the ebb and flow of magnificent empires.
At the heart of the city of Belgaum stands the formidable Belgaum Fort, a colossal structure dating back to 1204 AD. A masterstroke of military architecture, the fort's oval shape and robust ramparts are complemented by a wide moat, designed to thwart enemy advances. As you enter through the intricately crafted gate adorned with Persian inscriptions, you'll encounter the divine guardians—idols of Lord Ganesha and Goddess Durga. Within the fort's embrace, a tapestry of history unfolds. Jain temples like Kamal Basadi, showcasing Chalukyan artistry, and the ruins of Chikki Basadi speak of an era marked by spiritual richness. Mosques like Safa Masjid and Jamia Masjid offer a glimpse into the diverse cultural influences that have shaped Belgaum.
