Jit Gadhi

The Jit Gadhi (जितगढी; historically known as Butwal Gadhi) is a fort in Butwal, Lumbini Province, Nepal. It was built by the Sen dynasty.

The fort was used during the Anglo-Nepalese War (1814–1816) where Colonel Ujir Singh Thapa led Nepal's victory in the Battle of Jitgadhi against the East India Company.

In 2019, the Butwal Sub-Metropolitan City revealed the life-size statue of Ujir Singh Thapa near the fort citing the historic significance. In 2021, a war museum was inaugurated to commemorate the Battle of Jit Gadhi.
