A building built for the Rajput Mother of a Muslim Nawab

Feb 2014 • Friends

Chattar Manzil is so named because of the shape of its dome, which looks like an umbrella. This was built by Nawab Gazi Uddin Haider but changed many hands thereafter. Currently it is under the Indian Government Council of Scientific and Industrial Research and hence not open to general public and tourists.

Excellent Building

The Chattar Manzil is the place of nawabs and their wives. The building was build by Saadat Ali Khan. Its one good place to see if you are travelling to Lucknow.

Beauty

Feb 2023

Chattar Manzil is located on the banks of River Gomati. Nawab Ghazi-ud-din Haider laid its foundation. While I had heard a lot about this attraction, it was poorly kept. It was abandoned.

Even the garden had not been manicured. Chattar Manzil has the Central Drug Research Institute in its premises yet looks desolate. However, none of this took away its beauty.

Chattar Manzil is built in an Indo – Italian style. It has a large umbrella topping on it which gives the monument its name (umbrella = chhatri = Chhatar).

Nawab era monument

Oct 2017 • Friends

It's an old monument having an umbrella shaped dome. This was built by the Nawab rulers. Now it is an office of Drug Research Institute. Underground rooms and edifice show nawab era architecture.

Neglected heritage

Feb 2020

A beautiful Awadhi style building used by the Nawab of Awadh as his residence. Adjoining this place is another kothi which was owned by a French general Martin Cloud, later purchased by the Nawab. It has excellent French architecture. Both the buildings are in sheer neglect. High time to start protecting our heritage before it goes !

Nothing there

You can skip this place as it is not a tourist place. It is actually an office of central drug research institute of India. The building is old but beautiful.

Great dome shaped architecture

Feb 2019 • Solo

It is a great example of Mughal era architecture. The chattar or umbrella gleams majestically in sunlight. Currently it houses the office of drug research institute of India

Excellent Place

Dec 2017 • Couples

I went to Chattar Manzil. The buildings have large underground rooms and a fine dome with gilt umbrella that glitters upon the fall of sun's rays on it. The palace has an excellent garden. It is great place to go.
