Built in the 12th-century, Kirti Stambh is situated inside the Chittorgarh Fort, Rajasthan. The 22 meters tall tower was constructed by a Jain merchant, Jeeja Bhagerwala during the rule of Rawal Kumar Singh, to glorify Jainism. The tower contains figures from the Jain pantheon, and hence, Kirti Stambh is considered a major Jain pilgrimage by many Jainism followers.

Kirti Stambh also goes by the name, the Tower of Fame. It is dedicated to the first Tirthankara, Rishabha. Famous for its intricate carvings of the Digambar sect, this seven storeyed tall tower has marvellous statues of Sri Adinatha. They are carved on the four corners of the Stambh along with figures of various Jain saints, making it more fascinating. The tower personifies Solanki Style of Architecture at it's best. Visiting the Stambh not only gives you a chance to read the pages of history but also makes you a spectator of a great view.

I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU
