مغل بادشاہ جہانگیر کاشاہکار
بادشاہ جہانگیر کےنام (شیخو) پر ہی آباد شہر شیخوپورہ میں 68 کنال پرمشتمل یہ وہی قلعہ ھے جہاں رنجیت سنگھ کی بیوہ اور دلیپ سنگھ کی ماتا سکھ مہارانی جند کور (جنداں) کو برطانوی راج نے قید
کیا تھا۔
جہانگیری عہد میں تعمیر کیا گیا یہ قلعہ شیخوپورہ تاریخ میں ایک منفرد مقام رکھتا ھے۔ جہانگیر کی آب بیتی "توزک جہانگیر" کافی تفصیل سے اس قلعے کا حال بتاتی ھے۔
سکھ عہد میں قلعے کیساتھ متعدد عمارتیں تعمیر کرکے اسےیکسر تبدیل کر دیا گیا۔
1808میں قلعے کورنجیت سنگھ نے اپنے 6 سالہ
بیٹے کھڑک سنگھ کیساتھ فتح کیا اور یوں یہ قلعہ "رنجیت جاگیر" کا حصہ بن گیا۔
1811 میں یہ قلعہ رنجیت سنگھ کی بیوی مہارانی داتا کور اور اس کے بیٹے کھڑک سنگھ کو نواز دیا گیا جہاں وہ اپنی زندگی کے آخری ایام تک رہیں۔

مورود-جنجیرہ سمندری قلعہ ہندوستان کے منفرد اور خوبصورت قلعوں میں سے ایک جیسے مہاراج چھترپتی شیو (Chatturpati Shiva) نے اپنے اس فلسفے پر کھڑا کیا کہ "سمندروں پر حکمرانی کرنے والا ہی اصل
طاقتور ھے".
قلعہ پدم-درگ سمندر سے نکلنے والی کمسا چٹان پر بنایا گیا۔ مہاراج چھتر پتی شیواجی کی موت کے بعد یہ قلعہ سدیوں کے ہاتھ چلا گیااور سیاست کاگڑھ بن گیا۔
ھندو سوراجیہ کےبانی، چھترپتی شیواجی مہاراج نےسمندر کو ایک جغرافیائی وجود کے طور پر استعمال کرنے کی اہمیت پر زور دیا۔
قلعہ
سدیوں (Siddis, Karnataka largest ethnic group) کے طاقتور اور مضبوط قلعے کی کہانیاں سناتا ھے جسے مراٹھوں، پرتگالیوں یا انگریزوں کے ذریعے فتح نہیں کیا جا سکتا تھا۔
قلعے کی 40 فٹ اونچی 22 دیواریں سیاہ گرینائٹ سے تعمیرکی گئی ہیں۔ لیکن یہ بات بھی سچ ھے کہ قلعہ میں آرکیٹیکچرل آرائش کا

Shiv Jayanti per tithi today 🙏🏻

Jai Bhavani
Jai Shivaji
#Fort thread on this occasion. Forts remain the best connection to the legacy of our Raje.
Starting with Purandar. Cannot stress enough how important this fort was for the Swarajya. In line of sight with Rajgad (the capital for 23 years before it moved to Raigad). Two treaties signed here - Raje himself once & Nana Phadnavis later.

The #icom theme for 2019 was: ‘Museums as Cultural Hubs: The future of tradition’ - we followed it by discovering the beautiful Maneckji Sett Parsi Fire Temple in our walk in #Fort. It’s the second oldest Fire temple of the Parsis in the culturally diverse city, made in 1733 ImageImage
Two grand #lamassu (protective deities depicted as hybrid figures including a human head, a body of an ox or a lion &wings of a bird) are seated at the entrance.
