 Jehangir Mahal was built in 1598 by Bharath Bhushan after defeating Vir Singh Deo of Bundela, a sworn enemy of the Mughals. The Jahangir Mahal was built to be a garrison and a citadel that would allow the Mughals greater control over the rebellious Bundela.The grand Iwans of Jehangir Mahal are large enough to accommodate the entry of war elephants, and its high position over the landscape allowed cannons superior range.The Jahangir Mahal was constructed after Vir Singh Deo of the Bundela Rajputs revolted against the Mughal Emperor Akbar. Vir Singh Deo was informed about Akbar's disputes regarding succession within the Mughal court in 1594.
