Jalna Fort

India

Jalna Fort, also known as Mastgad, Mastgarh, is a historic fort located on the eastern side of the town of Jalna, Maharashtra, India. It was built in 1725 by Kabil Khan, under the orders of Nizam ul Mulk Asaf Jah I, the founder of the Asaf Jahi dynasty in Hyderabad Princely State, an independent successor state to the Mughal Empire. The fort, along with the citadel, occupies a prominent position in the town. For a few years, the fort was used by the Jalna Municipal Corporation. Now the corporation's office has shifted to a new place near Zila Parishad School.
