Mutiny Memorial, National memorial at Ridge Road, Delhi, India.
The Mutiny Memorial rises in four tiers from an octagonal base, constructed with red sandstone and featuring Gothic architectural elements throughout its structure.
Built in 1863 by the Public Works Department, this memorial commemorates the soldiers of the Delhi Field Force who participated in the Indian Rebellion of 1857.
The memorial received a new name, Ajitgarh, in 1972, with additional plaques recognizing the Indian freedom fighters as martyrs rather than adversaries.
Visitors can access the memorial through the entrance opposite Bara Hindu Rao Hospital, near Delhi University campus and the Old Telegraph Building.
The memorial stands deliberately taller than the neighboring Ashoka Pillar, featuring seven faces with memorial plaques on its lowest tier.
