Mutiny Memorial (Ajitgarh)
A Gothic-style monument in Delhi commemorating the 1857 uprising, later rededicated to honor Indian freedom fighters.
The Mutiny Memorial, now known as Ajitgarh, stands on Delhi's Northern Ridge as a reminder of the Indian Rebellion of 1857. Erected by the British in 1863, it commemorates the soldiers who fought in the Delhi Field Force. In 1972, it was renamed Ajitgarh ('Place of the Unvanquished') to honor the Indian freedom fighters.
