History of shinde chatri

Shinde Chhatri is a cenotaph built for Mahadii Shinde,

the commander-in-chief of the Peshwas. Chhatri literally
means “umbrella” and in this case, the significance of a
shelter for the ashes of the commander.

Mahadji Shinde initially, build the Shiva Temple in the

premises. Unfortunately, he took ill during the same year
and passed away. His last rites were performed here. His
ashes were kept safely in a memorial or a samadhi and
these can be seen in the while colored structure opposite
