The Ita Fort is believed to have been built around the 14th or 15th century, although its exact origins are still debated. It is attributed to the Chutiya rulers, who held sway over the region before the Ahom kingdom. The fort likely served as a strategic defense structure and a symbol of power. Over the centuries, it has witnessed numerous events, changing hands and falling into disrepair. While not much is known about specific battles or events that occurred here, its existence is a testament to the historical importance of the area and the indigenous peoples who built it. Today, it stands as a protected monument.
