'''Bahadurgad Fort''' ({{lang-mr|बहादूरगड / पेडगाव चा किल्ला}}) is a fort in [[Ahmednagar district]] near to [[Daund]] in the [[Maharashtra]] state of [[India]].

==Location==
The fort is located about 100 km from [[Pune]]. The nearest town is [[Daund]]. This fort lay about 15 km East of the [[Daund]] town on northern banks of River [[Bhima]]. The Fort is situated in the village [[Pedgaon, Ahmednagar|Pedgaon]].
==Places to see==
The fort is rectangular in shape with two entrance gates. The gate towards the village is in good condition while that towards the river is in ruined state. There is a 5 feet tall Maruti/[[Hanuman]] statue inside the fort along with group of 5 temples which were constructed during Yadav period. The [[Hemadpanti architecture]] temples are of Baleshwar, Lakshmi-Narayan, Mallikarjun, Rameshwar and Bhairavnath. There are many heroic stones, Satigal, cannon balls, Deepmal and a statue of Shiva in front of the Bhairavnath temple.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://trekshitiz.com/EI/Bahadurgad-Trek-B-Alpha.html|title=Bahadurgad, Western Ghats, Sahyadri, Adventure, Trekking|website=trekshitiz.com}}</ref>

==History==
Very less history of this fort is known. During the [[Moghul Empire]], [[Pedgaon, Ahmednagar|Pedgaon]] was one of the chief stores and a frontier post of the Moghul Army. In 1672 Deccan Viceroy Khan Jahan camped here and tried to pursuit Maratha army headed by [[Shivaji]] Maharaj. Khan Jahan built water Channel for bringing water from the river Bhima. The Mot and the Persian wheel are well preserved till now. Khan Jahan renamed Pedgaon as Bahadurgad. This fort was captured by [[Shivaji]] Maharaj by fooling the Moghul Chief. There is a 2 storied palace of [[Aurangzeb]] inside the fort. It is believed that [[Sambhaji]] Maharaj met [[Aurangzeb]] in this palace. In 1759 Pedgaon was captured by [[Sadashivrao Bhau]] [[Peshwa]] and remained with the Marathas till 1818.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://gazetteers.maharashtra.gov.in/cultural.maharashtra.gov.in/english/gazetteer/Ahmednagar%20District/places_p.html#5 |title=Gazetteers Of The Bombay Presidency - Ahmadnagar |publisher=Gazetteers.maharashtra.gov.in |date= |accessdate=2019-10-19}}</ref>
