Shergarh Fort, Rohtas

Shergarh Fort is located in the Chenari region which is 10 km away from Sasaram. The fort is said to have been built by Sher Shah Suri when he conquered Rohtas. He dedicated this to his Hindu beloved. Shergarh has many temples, graves and Emambaras, besides this fort.

The fortification had taken place just to ensure security. Hasan Khan Su, the father of Sher Shah Sur protected his jagir by the fortifications. The citadel , earlier known as Nawabgadh is now known as Shergarh Fort and is situated in the proximity of Sher Shah’s tomb in Sasaram.

This tourist destination is popular because this was the home to Hasan Khan Sur. Sher Shah Sur spent his childhood time here. The marvellous castle possesses three storeys, a lot of rooms and a wide beautiful gate. The existence of these Mughal rulers makes this place historical.
