Shaniwarwada is a historical fortification in the city of Pune in Maharashtra, India. Built in 1732, it was the seat of the Peshwas of the Maratha Empire until 1818, when the Peshwas lost control to the British East India Company after the Third Anglo-Maratha War. Following the upward thrust of the Maratha Empire, the palace have become the middle of Indian politics within the 18th century.

The Shaniwar Wada changed into firstly the seven-storied capital building of the Peshwas of the Maratha Empire. It become purported to be made completely of stone however after the crowning glory of the bottom ground or the primary tale, the human beings of Satara the national capital complained to the Shahu King pronouncing that a stone monument may be sanctioned and built simplest with the aid of the Shahu King himself and not the Peshwas.

The Wada become then completed and upon being attacked by using the British Artillery ninety years later, all the pinnacle six tales collapsed leaving simplest the stone base, which turned into immune to the British artillery.
