Pathri is a small village in the Parbhani district known for its historical importance. Though there is nothing significant there but it was an important part of erstwhile Berar region during the rule of Akbar and later the Mughals. The fort of Pathri is a crumbling non-descript type of fort with almost all the walls and bastions gone and only one entrance remaining intact. There is a masjid in the fort and there is a massive stepwell in the fort which is of interest. History Pathri was supposed to be built in 1524 or some year nearby by Allaudin Imad Shah. Burhan Nizam Shah of the Ahmednagar Kingdom attacked this fort in 1526 and captured it. No other significant history of the fort exists anywhere.
