Hajiganj Fort is situated on the western bank of the Sitalakkhya River at Hajiganj in Narayanganj district. This fort was established by the Mughal Governor Mir Jumla during seventeenth century to ward off frequent raids on Dhaka and surroundings by the strong pirate forces of Maghs and Portuguese. The fort, quadrangular in size, consists of a pentagonal curtain wall machicolated for muskets with rounded corner bastions, rampart wall around the wall inside, a free tall square column in a corner, and a gateway towards the river.
