Rajmahal Palace, Mehsana

About

Rajmahal Palace in Mehsana, Gujarat, is a striking example of Indo-Saracenic architecture, built in 1904 by Maharaja Sayajirao Gaekwad III of Baroda State. Designed by British architect Frederick William Stevens, the palace spans over 30,000 square feet and features three floors with 130 rooms. Its distinctive design includes one large onion-shaped dome, eight smaller onion domes, and eight pyramidal domes. Initially intended as a royal residence, it later served as a government office and district court until 2017. Currently vacant, there are proposals to convert the palace into a heritage hotel or museum, preserving its historical and architectural significance
