Located in the Raisen District of the state of Madhya Pradesh about 19 km south-east of Sanchi, the Andher Stupas are a group of 3 circular stupas, contemporary with those of Sanchi. The Stupa No. 1 is dated to about 150 BCE and is the largest of the 3 stupas. This stupa has a railing which now has the remains of a barrier of stone surrounding it.
Stupas No. 2 and No. 3 has inscriptions in the Brahmi script with the names of the same monks whose relics were found in Sanchi Stupa No. 2 and Sonari. The Andher Stupas overlook the Bhojpur Stupas.
