Shahapur Fort (built in 950-1150 A.D.) which has seven gates to enter from east and west of Fort. Shahapur Fort is divided into two parts...Eastern and Western Fort. Both forts are built on separate rocky mountains with adjoining walls. Siddalingeshwara Temple and Hajrat Syed Salar Masood Guazi Dargah can also be seen at western route of fort. At the western side base, there is Hathi Baoli (Elephant Tank).
Eastern Fort has many constructions like entrance gates, turrets, mosque, prison and military structures. Most of them are in bad condition.
On Western Fort, only ancient Hanuman Temple and Mandakini Lake are worth seeing. The Tavare kere ( Lotus Lake) beside the Fort is surrounded by hills.
Shahapur fort is one of the largest fort of Karnataka. Unfortunately the fortification and structures on fort are in bad condition. It needs to be protected and preserved.
