A l'époque, le lieu était la forteresse d'où régnait le sultan Tipû Sâhib. L'ancien fort comprenait également un temple, le Palais d'été de Tipû Sâhib et son arsenal. Aujourd'hui, il ne subsiste des ouvrages militaires que la porte de Delhi, située sur la rue Krishna Rajendra et deux bastions. Une plaque de marbre commémore l'endroit où les Britanniques ont percé le mur du fort, ce qui a mené à la capture de Tipû en 1792.
