Quilla Ramalayam, Nizamabad
Originally known as Indur, the town and fort were built by the Rashtrakutas.
There is a 40 feet high monolithic victory pillar built during the Rashtrakuta
times. The fort was occupied by Allauddin Khilji in 1311 A.D, and subsequently
went into the hands of Bahamanis, Qutub Shahis and then Asaf Jahis. The present
fort has a wide area encircled by masonry walls along with huge bastions at
the corners.
The
fort has bastions both square as well as circular, built at irregular intervals
. Inside the fort are two palaces and a temple complex. The temple dedicated
to Siva was built on Stellate plan, imitating the Kakatiya style of architecture.
This fort is an example of the defence architecture of the princely states of
Telangana.
