The Siege of Darwar was a twenty-nine week siege of the fort at Darwar in 1790 and 1791, then near the frontier between the Kingdom of Mysore and the Mahratta Empire. The Mahrattas, assisted by forces of the British East India Company, began the siege on 18 September 1790; the Mysorean garrison surrendered on 3 April 1791.
