Laxmangarh Fort, Hilltop fort in Laxmangarh, India.

The stone fortress stands on a hill overlooking the town of Laxmangarh, featuring 13 furnished rooms and multiple defensive structures along its perimeter.

Rao Raja Lakshman Singh constructed the fort in 1805 following conflicts with Kan Singh Saledhi, establishing it as a military stronghold for the region.

The fortress holds a central position in the novel The White Tiger by Aravind Adiga, which received the Man Booker Prize in 2008.

The fort remains under private ownership by the Jhunjhunwala family, who maintain the property and have added modern amenities including bathrooms and a swimming pool.

The fort's construction incorporates large natural rock formations as integral parts of its foundation and structure, creating an architectural design specific to this location.
