Built to look like a smaller replica of the Windsor Castle in England, the Bangalore Palace was built by Rev. Garrett, he Principal of the Central High School in Bangalore which is now known as the Central College. The construction of the Palace started in 1862 and completed in 1944. The Maharaja of Mysore - Chamraja Wodeyar- bought the palace in 1884 and it is now owned by the current scion of the Mysore royal family, Srikanta Datta Narasinmharaja Wodeyar. It is decked with outstanding woodcarvings and Tudor-style architecture on the inside. Fortified towers, Gothic windows, battlements and turrets lend a great degree of glory to the Bangalore Palace of India. Largely built of wood, it brags of fine carvings and paintings. Today the palace serves as the venue for various exhibitions, concerts and cultural programs held in the city.
