History
Gogunda was the temporary capital of Mewar for some years, when Udai Singh shifted his base here and left Chittorgarh after Akbar besieged it. Udai Singh also died at Gogunda in 1572 and Maharana Pratap's Raj Tilak (coronation) was performed here. The Rajtilak of Maharana Pratap was completed by Masaliya Rawal - Rajpurohit of Jhala Rajput.
In past centuries and during British Raj, the village of Gogunda was the seat of a feudal estate administered by a family belonging to the Jhala clan of Rajputs. The estate was part of the princely state of Mewar, and the family were among the major landed barons of that principality. It comprised 75 villages, encompassing a population, in 1901, of 7,708 and a revenue of Rs.24,000/-.
It was near Gogunda that the Battle of Haldighati in 1576 was fought between the armies of Maharana Pratap and the Mughal emperor Akbar's forces, led by Man Singh I of Amber.

विजयेन्द्र कुमार माथुर[1] ने लेख किया है ...गोगंदा अथवा 'गोगुंदा' (AS, p.298) उदयपुर ज़िला, राजस्थान में स्थित एक ऐतिहासिक स्थान है। भारतीय इतिहास में यह स्थान महत्त्वपूर्ण रूप से उल्लेखनीय है। यह चित्तौड़ के निकट स्थित है। राणा प्रताप तथा मुग़ल बादशाह अकबर की सेनाओं में हल्दी घाटी की प्रसिद्ध लड़ाई (1576 ई.) इसी स्थान के निकट हुई थी। गोगंदा ही वह स्थान है, जहाँ राणा प्रताप के पिता उदयसिंह की मृत्यु हुई थी तथा राणा प्रताप का राजतिलक हुआ था।
