Roha Fort, Medieval fort in Kutch district, India.

Roha Fort rises 800 feet above sea level on a hill, extending across 16 acres of land in the Nakhatrana region of Gujarat.

The fort construction started under Rao Khengarji I, with Thakore Noganji completing the structure using baked bricks and stones in the eighteenth century.

The fort contains a temple dedicated to Lord Krishna, while its palatial quarters display fine wooden lattice work and architectural details from different periods.

Located 50 kilometers from Bhuj, the fort remains accessible through the main road network connecting the surrounding 52 villages of the region.

The fort grounds hold samadhis commemorating 120 Soomra Rajput princesses who chose death over capture during a historical conflict.
