Abanindranath Tagore Garden House Konnagar | অবনীন্দ্রনাথ ঠাকুরের বাগান বাড়ি

This is the house where Abanindranath Tagore spent considerable time during his childhood. And a glimpse of this can be seen from the book Jorasankor Dhare written by him. Here he mentions the house being surrounded by dogs, horses, monkeys, deer, etc. How he used to spend time swimming, boating amongst innumerous servants.

Out here had the fantastic opportunity to get to see the rural life, he saw the evening prayers at the temples. Sometimes he was mesmerized by the village performers or times when his father would practice shooting a rifle next to him.

Over the years this building was passed on from the Tagore family and changed hands several times before landing in the hands of a builder eager to build a riverfront multistoried property.

Luckily with some resistance from a few citizen groups and locals, an understanding was reached wherein the house and some portion of the property were to remain untouched while the new owner could develop the rest of the vacant plot.

After the West Bengal heritage commission declared this property as a heritage site on the 28th of May 2007 and the Konnagar Municipality did the restoration of the property and that is what we get to see now.
