Geography & terrain

Singorgarh Fort lies in the Damoh district of Madhya Pradesh, 25 km from Damoh and 250 km from Bhopal — the hill fort of the region, its 14th-century origins, the towers and the views set on the Bundelkhand ridge.

History & culture

The fort's story runs with the 14th-century era — the hill fort of the 14th-century origins and the 17th-century-era rebuild of the Gond rulers, with the fort's modern role as the heritage stop of the Damoh circuit and the home of the 17th-century-era walls and the 14th-century-era foundations and the ruined palaces; the fort's history of the 19th-century abandonment and the 2000s-era walks, gives Singorgarh its hill-fort character.
