One of the few zamindar palaces in South Kolkata, built by Joynarayan Ghosal in 1781. He had an estate at Gobindapur, which later became Fort William (present-day Vijay Durg). He got a new estate of 108 bighas (1,44,720 m²) at Kidderpore during the construction of Fort William. After clearing the forest, he built a palace as well as temples dedicated to Shiva and family deity Patitapavani. Since then, the whole property has been endowed for worship of Patitapavani.
Masjid Ismail
Contains a heritage gallery.
A memorial dedicated to the 1.6 million Indian workers who were transported to labour in European colonies. The indenture system was a substitute for slavery, which was abolished in many European countries by the 19th century. This resulted to the increasing presence of Indians abroad, especially in Africa, Southeast Asia, the Caribbean and the Pacific.
