Manicktala Chaltabagan Lohapatty Durga Puja

A mansion with a large courtyard, known for the "fanush" (ফানুস phānus) festival celebrated in the afternoon of Diwali, where paper-made sky lanterns called phānus are flown. These sky lanterns work like hot-air balloons, where the air inside is heated with a cloth rag ball (লুটি luṭi) soaked in spirit, which is attached to the base of the lantern. The venue of the phānus festival was purchased in 1925 by Raghunath Dutt and is named after his father, Bholanath Dutt. The first phānus festival was also observed there in 1925, and various theme-based sky lanterns are now flown from the mansion.

The memorabilia in the museum consists of photographs, sketches, paintings and excerpts from the writings of Ram Mohan Roy and others reproduced, wherever possible, in facsimile. Also, period furniture and diorama representations were designed to recreate the times. Together they not only give you glimpses of the various facets of one of the greatest personalities of the modern age, but at the same time takes you back into a period in history when India was at crossroads, and Ram Mohan Roy heralded the coming of the modern age.

The museum collects, preserves and interprets objects related to the history of the Kolkata Police. Exhibits includes various items seized during the freedom struggle of the country.

Contains graves of Bengali poet Toru Dutt and his family.

The erstwhile residential house of Pandit Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar, social reformer, language pioneer and a key figure in bringing about the renaissance in Bengal, has been converted into a women's college which runs various professional and language courses. The heritage building was renamed 'Vidyasagar Smriti Mandir'. A part of the building has been converted into a museum.

The 18th-century building was in a dilapidated condition, worsening day by day. The Ramakrishna Mission acquired it, along with an adjacent plot, in May 1999. Ramakrishna Mission restored Vivekananda's ancestral house without changing any of its original architectural features. It houses Vivekananda's birthplace, meditation hall (first floor) and museum, where some of the articles used by Vivekananda, his father, mother and brothers are preserved.
