Dundlod Fort
डूंडलोद किला
A small fort built in 1750, also known as Shiv Garh Fort, where painted reception halls sit alongside European furniture. It is now a heritage hotel.
Dundlod Fort lies about 25 km southeast of Mandawa. It was built in 1750 by Thakur Keshri Singh and is also known as Shiv Garh Fort. The fort is not large, but its Diwan Khana (reception hall) combines Rajput paintings, mirror decoration, and European chandeliers and furniture, reflecting the tastes of the colonial-era nobility. The fort is now a heritage hotel and is famous for breeding Marwari horses and for horse-riding activities. The town also has the cenotaphs and havelis of the Goenka family. Non-guests usually pay a small fee to visit.
