Grant Description

Through a series of preservation, conservation and training initiatives the Heritage Trust will salvage one of the most significant medieval sites in western India. Medieval Champaner was an important stop on the military/trade route linking Malwa and Gujarat. Dominating the site is the 800-meter high Pavagadh hill, upon which a fortress was established in the 10th century.
