European Architecture

Hyderabad City
Designed by Lt. Samuel Russel, the British Residency of Hyderabad was built in 1806 and is one of the best examples of European architecture in India. Presently used as a Government college, it has a Georgian facade and a vast campus comprising of several ancillary buildings of considerable architectural and historical significance.

Some Asaf Jahi palaces of the early period, like the Chow Mahalla were built in European style. The city also has several beautiful churches built during the nineteenth century.

Secunderabad, which is part of Hyderabad originally developed around a British Cantonment, set up in 1798. During the nineteenth century Secunderabad, the Residency area around Sultanbazar-Koti, and the Gunfoundry-Abids area had a strong presence of European population. Many large bungalows and houses of the period still survive. One can also find a few Art Nouveau or Jugendstil buildings built in the early nineteenth century.

Bimlipatnam (Bheemunipatanam), 24 Km north of Visakhapatnam on the eastern coast was a Dutch Settlement set up in the seventeenth century. This small town has ruins of Dutch palaces, an ancient cemetery and an old church and a town hall. Public buildings and churches in European style can be found in many other towns such as Visakhapatnam, Vijayawada, Vizianagaram, Machilipatnam and even Tirupati.
