Fort Ahmed Nagar is one of the most fascinating places in Ahmed Nagar. The fortress was originally built in mud in 1427 but was later converted into a magnificent stone fortress by Ahmad Nizamsha I, the first ruler of the Nizamshahi dynasty. The reconstruction of the fortress's mud structure into stone began in 1559 and was finally completed in 1562. The purpose of the fortress was to protect the city from the outside invasion of the kingdom's enemies. Today, it is a historic and natural attraction for anyone visiting Ahmed Nagar.

Salabat Khan II was a great statesman and a minister in the court of the 4th Nizam Shah Murtaza. Today, the spectacular tomb of Salabat Khan is one of the famous places to visit in Ahmednagar. This magnificent tomb is a three-storeyed stone structure built in signature Mughal architectural style.

The tomb is situated at an elevation of 3,080 feet and is visible from any part of the city. The tomb is based on an octagonal structure covered by a dome supported by three piers of brilliantly sculptured pointed arches.
