This is the heritage building of the then jamindar of
Jamalpur. It was built during the late eighteenth century by Sheik Enayet
Ullah.
It was built on a huge area covering a summer house for
Sheik Enayet Ullah. The son of Sheik Enayet Ullah sold this marvellous property
to the French traders. The French got defeated and the English took power of
all the properties, once reigned by the French. The old French building was
then reconstructed to two stories building by Ahsanullah, keeping similarity to
the ‘Rangmahal’. The doom was a part of the reconstruction of this mahal and
then came to be known as ‘Ahsan Manzil’.
This palace is situated on the bank of the river Buriganga.
It is a beautiful, serene and tranquil place that keeps you away from the
sultry summer heat.
