Chehni Kothi is a traditional Kath Kuni-style fortified tower with a temple inside, located in Chehni village, Banjar, Himachal Pradesh, India.[1] The 350-year-old 12-storey-high structure is made in the "Kath Kuni" method (Kath meaning "wood", and Kuni, "corner"), using only stones and wood without cement or nails. It has a temple inside, but was originally built as a fort.[2][3]
