Sindhudurg was built in 1664-67 AD by Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, when all his attempts to take the island fort of Janjira proved futile.
The construction was done under the supervision of Hiroji Indulkar, an able architect.
Chatrapati Shivaji had invited 100 Portuguese experts from Goa for the construction of the fort. It is also recorded that 3000 workers were employed round the clock for three years to build Sindhudurg.
