Throchi Fort, Military fort in Gulpur, Pakistan.

Throchi Fort stands on a hilltop three kilometers east of Gulpur village, offering views across the surrounding Kotli district of Azad Kashmir.

Built between 1425 and 1460 under chieftain Jasrat's rule, the fort protected local populations and controlled access routes in the Kotli region.

The fort incorporates Indo-Islamic and Mughal architectural elements, with local narratives suggesting its name derives from a prominent Hindu figure.

The Pakistan Army manages the fort, which requires visitors to obtain proper permissions and follow specific guidelines for access to the premises.

The fort maintains its original defense structures while serving as an active military installation, merging historical architecture with contemporary military functions.
