The Fort of Hansi is built at the north of the town, and is located on a high mound with massive ramparts surrounded by a moat. The present entrance is through a gateway of relatively recent construction on the southern side. Scholars mention that the walls of the fort were demolished in the 19th century and the materials were sold. Some portions still survive though. To the south of the fort remains of a canal, possibly Firuz Shah's jumna canal, survive. The present approach to the fort is by a road on the southern side, which goes through the entrance and leads northwards up past a storehouse known locally as Baradari. Inside the fort complex there are a variety of structures built between 8th to 19th century that include a baoli (well), remains of a ruined temple, Rauda of Shah Nimatullah, Gatehouse of the Rauda, Ghuriyun masjid, ancient circular well and mosque 2.
