Munger Fort, Military fort in Munger, India

The stone fortification extends over 222 acres along the south bank of the Ganges River, featuring thick walls and a deep protective moat.

The fort changed control through multiple rulers, from the Slave dynasty in 1325 to the British East India Company in the 18th century.

The fort complex contains several religious structures, including temples, mosques, and the tomb of Muslim saint Shah Mushk Nafa from 1497.

Visitors can reach the fort through regular train services to Munger station or by taking a road trip from Patna, located 180 kilometers away.

The Bihar School of Yoga, established in 1964 within the fort walls, attracts international students for traditional yogic education and practices.
