Ratnagiri Fort
Ratnagiri Fort, located in Ratnagiri village near Rolla in Sri Sathya Sai district of Andhra Pradesh, is a historic hill fort spanning two hills named Ratnagiri and Venkatagiri. Known as Seema Golconda ("Golconda on the border"), it has a rich history linked to the Pandya and Chola kingdoms and later came under the control of Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan.
The fort features several ancient structures including ruined temples, large stepwells like a queen’s swimming pool with a Krishna shrine, and a stepwell used by devotees visiting a goddess temple. It is notable for its strategic importance and layered fort walls extending across the hills.
Despite its historical significance, the fort remains in ruins with partial maintenance mostly by local volunteers, attracting tourists and history enthusiasts interested in its past and architectural remnants.
