His son Ibrahim Lodi held the fort which was then known as Badalgarh for nine years until he was defeated in the first battle of Panipat.
When Babur sent his son Humayun to Agra, he captured the Badalgarh Fort and seized a vast treasure which included the famous Kohinoor diamond. When Akbar arrived in Agra, he realized the importance of the city and made it it's capital. Akbar regained the remains of the Badalgarh Fort and renovated it with red sandstone from Rajasthan. Shah Jahan, who was Akbar's grandson destroyed some of the buildings in the fort to make his own in their place, rendering the Agra Fort as it is today.
