Domakonda Fort, situated in the village of Domakaonda, is placed at a distance of 38km from the city of Nizamabad and 98 km from the capital city of Hyderabad. The fort is popular in the region of Nizamabad and Telangana because of the historical significance attached to it. Domakonda Fort was constructed by Kamineni Vamsam who belonged to the community of Kammas and is about 400 years old. Outside the fort is a beautiful Shiva temple that was built by the Kakatiya Kings to honor the God. Many sections of the fort are now in ruins; however, one can still admire the marvelous architecture of the times. The fort is an excellent example of strength and beauty combined. What is interesting is that the architecture of the fort combines Muslim and Hindu styles to produce an effect that is unmatched and unparalleled.
