Fort Patta History –
.
Patta fort earlier belonged to Mughals but in year 1671,Moropant Pingle was
on a mission of capturing forts in Nasik and Baglan range and thus in year
1672,Moropant Pingle was succesful to capture this fort
.
Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj during raid on Jalna in year 1679 rested for
some time near Sangamner and unfortunately the Maratha army was siezed from
all sides by Mughal army and Shivaji Maharaj was ill during that time.
Bahirji Naik succesfully rescued Shivaji Maharaj and took him to Patta
fort. Shivaji Maharaj stayed on this fort for around 1.5 months to recover
from illness(After Rajgad and Raigad,Patta is the only fort where Shivaji
Maharaj stayed for this much long time)
