Old High Court Building

The Old High Court Building in Dhaka is situated at High Court Street, opposite the picturesque Curzon Hall. It was constructed in the beginning of the 20th century in Renaissance architectural style. It was built as the house of the governor of East Bengal and Assam. After the construction of the building, the advisor of the Indian government said that it was not suitable for a governor’s residence. It was then used as a general office and was given to Intermediate College. The High Court Building was built after the division of India in 1947.
