It is now in ruins but is known as historical fort that built in the seventeenth century. The Nanus Fort is known to be built by Shivaji. However it was later snatched by the Portuguese. During the revolt in the earlier times it was used as military based by Dipaji Rane after he captured it.
During the reign of the Ranes also the Nanus Fort was again captured by soldiers from Quepem along with those from Panaji barracks. Today however one can only see the ruins of the fort. The place can be reached by bike or taxi inorder to reach fort.
