Krishnath College, Educational institution in Murshidabad district, India

The college spans across a campus featuring Saracenic-Gothic architecture on the eastern bank of the Bhagirathi River in West Bengal.

Maharani Swarnamoyee established Krishnath College in 1853, with support from Nawabs, Zaminders, and local citizens of the Murshidabad region.

The institution maintains a library of 45,000 volumes, including ancient collections that draw researchers and scholars from various academic disciplines.

Three residential buildings provide accommodation for 450 students who travel from areas outside Berhampore to pursue their education at the college.

The college received its current name in 1903 to honor Raja Krishnath, who originally envisioned creating both a college and university in the region.
