History of Ratanpur Fort

Ratanpur Fort in Bilaspur, India is an old fort whose exact date of construction is shrouded in mystery. There is no historical evidence to dispel the haze that blurs the construction of this once impressive fort. There is also not enough information that makes it clear as to who commissioned the construction of this fort.

Ratanpur Fort, at present, lies in a dilapidated state. Due to the absence of proper maintenance the fort has lost its grandeur and splendor. It is not difficult to form a conception as to how the fort looked during its prime. Dereliction with regard to its proper maintenance and preservation has stripped off the fort of its former magnificence. Here you can marvel and appreciate the exquisite stone sculpture over the frame of the Ganesh Gate. Take a close look at the idols of Ganga and Jamuna that grace the gate. At the entrance, Lord Shiva, in his Tandav Dance pose is bound to grab eyeballs.
