Daulatmangal fort is believe to be built during Yadav dynasty. Area of the fort is not as large as that of other sahyadri forts. All the fortification on the fort has been destroyed except remnants of a entry bastion and another door like structure.
The famous thing on this fort is temple of Bhuleshwar. It is the Lord Shiva temple, built in 1200AD.
What would be a superb architecture during its glorious days! All the sculptures are now in very bad shape because Aurangzeb's army destroyed all the Hindu temples along with its sculptures.
