Gingee Fort - The Troy of the East | History of Gingee Fort #gingee #history #indianhistory

In this video, we take you on a virtual tour of one of the mightiest forts in India, the Gingee Fort in Tamil Nadu. It was around this fort that the Mughals waged a pitched battle to defeat the Marathas under Chhatrapati Rajaram and his wife Queen Tarabai between 1680 and 1698. For 8 long years, they couldn't break in and take on their enemy. Rich in lore and legends, this fort also has a temple dedicated to Queen Draupadi of the epic Mahabharata. What is the connection?

Senji - 10th century Indian Fort - Rocks and Romance (Gingee)

Senji Fort from the air. Senji (Gingee - British mangled name) is a town in the Thiruvannamalai District in India

Labeled Most impregnable fortress in India by King Shivaji and Troy of the east by the British!

Founded by Ananda Kon in the 11th century. It had a long series of rulers the Kons first, followed by the kings of the Hoysala and Vijayanagar empires, local Nayaks, Deccan sultanates, the Marathas (Shivaji). It took a 8 year seige by the Mughals to wrest it from the hands of the Marathas in the 15th century. A revolt by Raja Tej Singh against the Mughals ended tragically in 1714 and most of the romance of the fort is associated with the valiant king and the stories about him, his trusted general and the difficult ending for his queen (she was likely forced to commit Sati).

The fall of Tej Singh started the decline of the illustrious Senji citadel and the forts which continued to see a change of guard to the French and finally the British.

The Venkataramana Temple Gingee

The Venkatramana Temple, the enormous structure within the enclosed town, was built by Muthialu Nayakan (1540- 1550 CE). This Venkatramana Temple is the largest Temple to Gingee during the later Vijayanagar period. The Temple faces East with a 7 tier Rajagopuram with a Deepa Sthambam.

There are two Prakarams, Kalyana Mandapa, Urchava Mandapa and Yaga Sala Mandapa with pillars. The Temple pillars depict Vishnu mythology with floral designs and sculptures. Due to the invasion, they are in ruin condition now. The inner entrance walls of the Rajagopuram has various statues like Vishnu, Ranganatha, Venugopala, Gajalakshmi, Brahma, Lord Shiva, with Parvati sitting Kailash worshipped by Devotees and saints, Dasavathara scene, Ramayana story and more.

The Temple contains several Tamil inscriptions. During the French invasion of Gingee in 1761 CE, Monolithic ornamental pillars were taken apart from this Temple to Pondicherry. The Venkatramana Temple Ornamental pillars were reused to decorate the statue of Dupleix(the Governor). And also, the 500 CE old Moolavar(main deity) has been taken away, and the same has been installed in Bharathi Park, Pondicherry.
