Rampura takes its name from Raja Ramshaha who first built the fort, about 600 years back. Though successive generations have made additions to the structure, the fort still stands strong. Topographically being a ravine area, the major occupation of the Kachwas, in the past, was being mercenary soldiers, recruited most often by the Gwalior State. As a result, the Rampura State was a tax free state. The area of the state originally consisted of 52 villages, which extended from present Madhya Pradesh to the borders of districts Jalaun, Etawah and Aurraiyya. The history of the Kachwa clan though being over 900 years old, the Rampura fort in itself bears testimony to the glory of a greater part of these years. The first recorded holder of the title to the kingdom was Raja Jaswant Singh, who got his sanad from Emperor Jehangir in 1619. This title was there on recognised by the British Government.It was during the British period, that the extent of the state was reduced to 28 villages. These boundaries were honoured till the last ruling king, Raja Chittar Singh. The present incumbent Raja Samar Singh owns the fort.
This is a 600 years old fort of Raja Samar Singh. One can spend a good weekend here. Rural area can be explored here and wild forest of chambal river.
i visited there to see the fort but the so called RAJA SAHAB of the fort didn't allowed me to enter inside the fort. very rude! i specifically went there to see the fort but the behaviour of the king totally disappointed me.
