Kanpur was only a village when it and the surrounding territory were acquired in 1801 by the British, who made it one of their frontier stations. The town was one of the focal points during the early stages of the Indian Mutiny (1857–58). In July 1857 British troops and European women and children were massacred there by revolting sepoys (British-employed Indian troops) led by Nana Sahib. Their bodies were thrown into a well, although it was said that some of the victims were still alive; a memorial was later built at the site of the well. British troops soon retook Kanpur and exacted brutal retribution on any rebels suspected of complicity in the massacre.
The surrounding region is a fertile stretch of alluvial plain between the Ganges and Yamuna rivers. It is watered by tributaries of the two rivers and by the Lower Ganges Canal. Crops include wheat, gram (chickpeas), jowar (grain sorghum), and barley.
