1857 UPRISING & DILLI- Mutiny Memorial & its neighbourhood in Kamla Nehru Ridge
Advertisement
The year 1857 marked a turning point in Indian history. What began as a sepoy mutiny in Meerut soon transformed into a widespread rebellion against British colonial rule. Within days, the rebelling sepoys marched to Delhi, a city symbolic of imperial power, where they declared the aging Mughal emperor Bahadur Shah Zafar as the leader of the uprising.
The Mutiny Memorial, now known as Ajitgarh, is a prominent monument located on the Delhi Ridge, near Kashmere Gate. It was constructed in 1863 by the British to honor their soldiers and officials who died during the 1857 uprising.
Let’s explore the stories of the 1857 uprising and its impacts, at the Mutiny Memorial & at its neighborhood landmarks (Ashokan Pillar, Baoli, Pir Ghaib Hunting Lodge & the Hindu Rao Hospital)
Experience curated by Darwesh Heritage Walks in collaboration with Sabhyata Foundation
