Sabalgarh

Sabalgarh stands beneath a fort on a rocky hill near the Chambal country. The fort is associated with a local chief named Sabala and with the rulers of Karauli, who strengthened the settlement. Its position made it a valuable stronghold amid the eighteenth-century contests between Rajput chiefs and Maratha forces. The Scindia rulers of Gwalior later held Sabalgarh, and Daulat Rao Scindia resided in the fort during his rule.
