It's a Part of Lohagarh Fort The main entrance to this grand fort is the Ashtadhatu Gate. Ashtadhatu means 'eight metals', for the spikes on this edifice are made of eight different metals. This north-facing imposing gateway with huge rounded bastions and paintings of war elephants carries a unique history.
Originally it used to be the gate of the Chittorgarh Fort in Rajasthan. From there it was carried to Delhi by Sultan Alauddin Khilji who plundered the Rajput city in the late 13th century.
The victorious Jats then tore it down from the walls of imperial Delhi during their attack in 1764 and brought it back with them to Bharatpur. The Lohiya Gate in the south of the fort was also lifted from Delhi in a similar fashion.

It's historical place . It is said about this door, that Maharaj Surajmal brought it here after uprooting it from the Red Fort of Delhi. Which was made of Ashtadhatu. This is really a big door.
