Dor Fortress, one of the major sightseeing attractions, is located on a small hillock in the Upper Kot of the city centre. The testament is named after King Buddhsen Dor., who laid foundation of the testimony.
During olden times, King Dor's court proceedings were organised at the site. Those days the site was known as Mohalla Ghosiyan-Parkatan, which is Police Kotwali's Southern corner at present.
There was a large well, horse stable and a stable for elephants during yesteryears located in the west of Kotwali. A tall minaret was constructed within this fortress by a Rajput ruler, Mangalsen for his widow daughter who used to view Holy River Ganga from it’s top galleries. The minaret was destroyed due to some reasons by British Governor Admeston in the year 1861-1862.
