[2][1] Fort is part of interstate Shekhawati region which lies on the either side of Haryana-Rajasthan border in the sandy bagar tract.

[1] In 1803, British gave Loharu and pargana of Ferozepur Jhirka to the Nawab Ahmed Baksh Khan of Loharu State, a princely state under company raj, who then converted the mud fort into a pucca (brick and masonry) fort.

The present fort combines three styles of architecture, Rajput, Mughal and British colonial.

Since 1971, after being sold to the government of Haryana, the fort remained uninhabited, all of the north-wing collapsed and so did a part of the east-wing.

In August 2021 GoH announced that after being given a State protected monument status, the fort will be conserved and developed into a tourist attraction.
