Derawar Fort (قِلعہ ڈیراور) is a fortress in Ahmad purr East Tehsil of Bahawalpur District in the Punjab province of Pakistan. Approximately 20 km south of the city of Ahmed purr East, the forty bastions of Derawar are visible for many miles in the Cholis tan Desert. The walls have a perimeter of 1500 meters and stand up to thirty meters high.

Derawar fort was first built in the 9th century AD by Rai Jajja Bhatti, a Hindu Rajput ruler of the Bhatti clan, as a tribute to Rawal Deoraj Bhatti , the king of Jaisalmer and Bahawalpur. The region was part of Emirate of Multan ruled by the Arabs .The fort was initially known as Dera Rawal, and later referred to as Dera Rawer , which with the passage of time came to be pronounced Derawar, its present name.

In the 18th century, the fort was taken over by Muslim Nawabs of Bahawalpur from the Sahota tribe. It was later rebuilt in its current form in 1732 by the Abbasi ruler Nawab Sadiq Muhammad, but in 1747 the fort slipped from their hands owing to Bahawal Khan's preoccupations at Shikarpur. Nawab Mubarak Khan took the stronghold back in 1804. 1,000 year-old catapult shells were found in the debris near a decaying wall in the fort.
