Hotels Near Navlakha Kothar
Pavagadh, Gujarat, India
Medieval Storage and Strategic Supply:: The Navlakha Kothar (literally, 'Nine Lakh Granary/Storeroom') is a massive, ruined stone structure that once served as the primary granary and storage facility for the Pavagadh Fort citadel. Its imposing size and location on the hill emphasize the strategic m ilitary planning of the Chauhan Rajputs and later the Gujarat Sultanate under Mahmud Begada. Its purpose was to store vast quantities of grain, ammunition, and other essential supplies needed to sustain the fort's garrison and the royal court during long periods of siege, such as the 20-month siege it famously withstood before its eventual fall in 1484. The name Navlakha again denotes a colossal scale or cost, suggesting the structure was monumental and indispensable to the fort's defenses. Today, the Kothar is an evocative ruin, its thick, high walls testament to its intended function as a secure, climate-controlled storage area. Visiting the site provides a tangible connection to the logistical and defensive aspects of the medieval hilltop capital. It is a key non-religious structure within the fort, illustrating the full spectrum of urban planning: from temples to fortifications to essential civic/military architecture. The Kothar is situated on a relatively flat area of the hill slope, making it accessible but strategically positioned away from direct assault points, yet close enough to the upper citadel.
