Ramagiri Fort, also known as Ramagiri Khilla, is a historic hill fort located near Ramagiri village in the Peddapalli district, close to Karimnagar in Telangana, India. Sited on a picturesque hilltop, the fort is often mentioned alongside the vibrant life of the Ramagiri Hills, also known as Ratnagarbha, due to the presence of precious stones in the vicinity. This quaint fortification is surrounded by lush greenery and natural beauty, offering commanding views of the Elagandal Khilla, Nagunur Fort, and the confluence of the Manair River with the Godavari. The fort's history is rich with tales of various dynasties that ruled over it, including the Kakatiyas, Bahmanis, Qutub Shahis, Mughals, and it ended up under the Asaf Jahis. The remnants of the fort, with its dilapidated walls and ancient relics, provide an intriguing glimpse into the architectural and cultural past of the region. The Ramagiri Fort stands as a testament to the engineering skills of ancient times, with its various levels, trapdoors, and stables, despite the wear and tear over centuries.
