Asigarh Fort is located in Hansi town of Haryana, India. It is also known as Prithviraj Chauhan' Fort or Prithvi Raj Chauhan Ka Qila and has been declared a centrally protected monument by ASI. It has completely been converted into a mound. A long pillared structure with a flat roof is situated on the top of the mound and is known as Baradari.
The fort was built by Prithviraj Chauhan in 12th century. The fort was again built by George Thomas in 1798 when he carved out his own kingdom consisting of Hisar and Rohtak districts with capital at Hansi. British Indian Army built a cantonment in this fort when George Thomas surrendered to British Raj in 1803. During the revolt of 1857, the cantonment was abandoned and the fort was demolished.
