History
There is a dargah in the Tehsil Chowk of the city. A historical pillar is built here, made of a mixture of sand, red, white stone and iron, having brief information related to the Tughlaq dynasty engraved on it. Some historians consider this pillar as Ashoka's victory pillar. Many others believe that this lat (pillar) was built by Hindu rulers because words in Sanskrit language are engraved on it. This area was earlier inhabited by Bhil people and was known as Udayanagari.
On 23 August 1351, Emperor Firoz Shah Tughlaq established a town here and named it Fatehabad after his newborn baby boy Fateh Khan.
Fatehabad Fort, was built in 14th century CE by Firoz Shah Tughlaq and named after his son, also has tomb of Meershah Peer who was spiritual guide of Firoz Shah.
There is a mosque called Humayun's mosque, which has the 15 to 16 feet tall lower portion of an Ashokan pillar, topped with five inch marble strip, is called Ferozs Shah ki Lat and was likely taken from Agroha Mound and whose lower portion lies in Lat ki Masjid at hisar.
