Delhi Gate

Eighteenth century entrance gate in Vellore linked to the Siege of Arcot and Mughal era fortifications.

Delhi Gate once served as the entrance to an eighteenth century fort built by Daulat Khan Pann, a governor under the Mughal Empire. The gate has witnessed several historic battles, including the Siege of Arcot, and stands today as a quiet reminder of Vellore's layered military history under successive dynasties. It draws far fewer visitors than the main fort, making it a good stop for travelers interested in the city's lesser known landmarks.
