Residence of Sister Nivedita, Heritage building in Kolkata, India

Located at 16 and 17 Bosepara Lane, this residence features restored murals in the Thakur Dalan and contains multiple exhibition spaces across two floors.

Sister Nivedita established her first girls' school at this location in the early 1900s, following a ceremonial blessing from Sri Sarada Devi.

The residence displays the original design of India's first national flag, created by Sister Nivedita's students during the independence movement.

The Ramakrishna Sarada Mission maintains the property and conducts guided tours through exhibition halls featuring artifacts from Sister Nivedita's life.

During the 1899 plague outbreak, the building served as a medical relief center for local residents under Sister Nivedita's direction.
