Tagore’s House (Jorasanko Thakur Bari)

Built in 1875, Tagore’s House, also known as Jorasanko Thakur Bari, stands as the ancestral home of Rabindranath Tagore, India’s greatest modern poet. Located in Kolkata, this vast house was both the birthplace and the final resting place of Tagore, who lived from 1861 to 1941. As the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize for Literature, Tagore’s legacy is celebrated within the walls of this historic residence, now transformed into a museum. Visitors can explore the rooms and artifacts that offer a glimpse into the life and works of this literary giant, providing a rich and immersive experience.
