Torna Fort
Known for it massive structure and the highest fort not only in Pune but all over Maharashtra, it was name as the Prachandgad (Huge fort). Since Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaj started the Swarajya establishment by capturing this fort, it is known as the toran (Garland) of Swarajya.
In 1646, Shivaji captured this fort at the age of sixteen, thus making it one of the first forts that would become one of the forts of the Maratha empire. Shivaji renamed the fort ' 'Prachandagad' ' as Torna, and constructed several monuments and towers within it .
