History:
In the 17th century, Khem Sawant Bhonsle, the Raja of Sawantwadi, likely built the fort on a hillock by the river with a commanding view of the Arabian Sea. The Bhonsles had a navy fleet that docked in the Tiracol River. The fort had 12 guns, a barrack, and a chapel. In 1746, the Portuguese, led by Viceroy Pedro Miguel de Almeida, attacked the fort after border raids. After a fierce battle, the Portuguese defeated the Sawantwadi forces, and the fort was surrendered on 23 November 1746.
