Basu Bati

Basu Bati, also known as Basu Bari, is a Grade I heritage mansion in the Bagbazar neighbourhood of North Kolkata, West Bengal, India. It was built between 1876 and 1878 by Nandalal Basu and Pasupatinath Basu, who belonged to the Basu family of Kantapukur. The mansion is one of the prominent nineteenth-century residential architecture in North Kolkata. During the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, several notable personalities connected with the cultural and political life in India, visited the mansion. Following Indian independence, parts of the property were divided among descendants of the family, while some sections came under the control of the Government of West Bengal.
