History Of Darbhanga Raj Fort
Darbhanga, Bihar, India
Sub Place Details: Darbhanga Raj Fort, also known as Raj Qila, is a magnificent historical complex that served as the seat of the Khandwala Dynasty, one of the wealthiest and most influential royal families in India. Built primarily in the 19th and early 20th centuries, the fort is a sprawling estat e of over 85 acres. It is often compared to the Red Fort in Delhi because of its massive red-brick walls and grand gateways. Inside the fort walls lie several stunning palaces, including the Ram Bagh Palace and the Nargona Palace, each reflecting a different era of architectural taste. The fort was the center of cultural and intellectual life in North Bihar, with the Maharajas being great patrons of music, art, and the Maithili language. Walking through the massive Kila Ghat entrance, one can imagine the grandeur of the royal processions that once took place here. Although parts of the fort are now used by the Kameshwar Singh Darbhanga Sanskrit University, the heritage value remains immense. The lush gardens, ancient temples like the Shyama Mai Temple located within or adjacent to the campus, and the intricate carvings on the palace facades make it a must-visit for anyone interested in Indian history. The fort represents the pinnacle of the Darbhanga Raj's power and their contribution to the development of the region. Despite the passage of time, the fort still stands as a proud sentinel of Mithila's royal past, offering a glimpse into the lifestyle of the zamindars who once ruled over a vast territory.
