Shivaji's Fort of Sindhudurg: The Sea Fort That Built Swarajya

In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the construction and strategic importance of Sindhudurg, Shivaji Maharaj's great sea fort off the Konkan coast. They discuss its innovative design with 17-foot-thick walls and hidden escape routes, the master architect Hiroji Indulkar, and the fort's role in Maratha naval defense. Lucas shares how the fort's iron anchors and freshwater wells reveal Shivaji's foresight, and contrasts it with the earlier fort of Janjira. The conversation also touches on the fort's later history under the Angres, British demolition attempts, and the legends of hidden treasure. This episode brings to life a lesser-known but crucial piece of Swarajya's maritime story. #ShivajiMaharaj #Sindhudurg #MarathaHistory #IndianHistory #FortArchitecture #KonkanCoast #HirojiIndulkar #MarathaNavy #Swarajya #Angre #KanhojiAngre #Janjira #DeccanHistory #Mavala #17thCenturyIndia #CoastalFort #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
