Sion Hillock Fort, Military fort in Sion, Mumbai, India.
The fort stands on top of a hill with stone walls and pathways leading to an elevated room overlooking the Thane Creek salt pans.
Built between 1669 and 1677 under the East India Company, this fort marked the boundary between British Parel Island and Portuguese Salsette Island.
The Archaeological Survey of India maintains its Mumbai Circle office at the base of the hill, near the Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru Udyan garden.
Located 500 meters from Sion railway station, the fort can be reached by local buses and auto-rickshaws that connect to various parts of Mumbai.
The fort structure includes broken stone steps, scattered walls, and remnants that provide insights into military engineering from the colonial period.
