About Fort Madhogarh |
Fort Madhogarh is situated 42 kilometers away from Jaipur off the
Jaipur-Agra highway (NH11). Madhogarh is a typical small Rajasthani
town; even today communities of potters, carpenters, cobblers, carpet
makers, etc. can be seen playing their trade in the centuries old
traditional way. The town is dominated by the picturesque Madhogarh
Fort situated on an elephant back shaped hill.
The Madhogarh fort entered the history books when Maharaja Sawai
Pratap Singh Ji choose to make this fort his headquarters in his campaign
against the Marathas. The decisive battle between the Rajputs and
the Marathas was fought in the plains of Tunga, just about 1 Km from
Madhogarh, on 28th July 1787. The battle started at 9 am and lasted
till about one hour after sunset. The combined Rajput army of Jaipur
and Jodhpur was about 50,000 string while the Maratha army was larger,
with about 80,000 solders. The Maratha army also had a professionally
trained battalion under the command of the famous Maratha general,
Mahadaji Scindia, was forced to abandon the battle field and leave
at night. The casualties numbered in thousand. Even today in some
fields in Tunga pieces of rusted equipment and human bones are found.
The Present owner, Thakur Bhawani Singh, the fourth generation
directed descendent of Thakur Pratap Singhji, has now renovated the
Madhogarh Fort and converted into a family run heritage hotel. Guests
can now experience the famous Rajput hospitality and relive the glory
of a bygone age. Guest can enjoy a stay in Pratap Mahal, the room
Maharaja Sawai Singhji used when on his campaign the Marathas. |
