Located 16 kms south of Kasargod in Kerala, the zigzag entrance and the trenches around the fort show the defense strategy connected with the fort. It is the biggest fort in Kerala, and is around 400 years old. The important features of this fort are the tank with its flight of steps and the opening of the tunnel towards the South, the magazine for keeping ammunition.
