The Mughal Emperor Humayun died tragically and suddenly in January 1556 after slipping and falling down the stone stairs of his personal library. This library was housed in a structure called Sher Mandal, located within the walls of the Dinpanah fort in Delhi. Humayun was known for his love of astrology and books and his death, which occurred just six months after he regained his throne, is often cited as characteristic of the unpredictable fortunes that marked his entire life.
