Sujanpur Fort, built in 1758 by the Emperor of Kangra, King Abhaya Chand, is one of the beautiful buildings located in the town of Hamirpur in Sujanpur. The fort is also popular for its many paintings. During the early 19th century, the King of Kangra, Sansar Chand, a follower of the Pahari School of Miniature Paintings, lived here. When the emperor lost Kangra to the British, Sujanpur Fort became a shelter for him and his family.There are 12 chambers and a hall in the building of this fort. The chambers here were made for the other kings who would come to meet with King Sansar Chand in Kangra. Situated on the banks of Beas River, the fort also has a Barahdari Hall where hearings were held. The large compound of this fort is now used for Holi celebrations; a popular Hindu festival of colours is celebrated for 3 to 4 days.Some other popular spots here are the temples of Narbadeshwar, Gaurishankar, and Murli Manohar.
