Mutiny Memorial
The Mutiny Memorial, also known as Ajitgarh, is a historic monument located on the Ridge in New Delhi, near Kashmiri Gate. Built in 1863 by the British, the memorial was originally intended to honor the British and Indian soldiers who fought in the Delhi Field Force during the Indian Rebellion of 1857.
The structure is made of red sandstone and designed in the Gothic style, featuring an octagonal base and four tiers rising from it.
In 1972, on the 25th anniversary of India's independence, the Indian government renamed the monument Ajitgarh, meaning "Place of the Unvanquished," and added a plaque stating that the "enemy" mentioned on the memorial were "immortal martyrs for Indian freedom". The memorial stands as a testament to the bravery and sacrifice of those who fought in the rebellion and is a significant historical site in Delhi.
