Ghanashyam House, Historical monument in Sivasagar, India.

The brick monument stands on the west bank of Joysagar Tank, featuring terracotta plaques depicting religious scenes, mythical animals, and geometrical designs.

Built in the early 18th century during King Rudra Singha's reign, the structure was designed by Ghanasyamuddin Khanikar, an architect from Bengal or Cooch Behar.

The temple combines Islamic and Hindu architectural elements, including arched gatehouses, battlements, and decorative elements representing both religious traditions.

Located 4 kilometers west of Sivasagar town, the monument remains open to visitors who can examine the architectural details and religious artwork.

The structure contains indigenous cement and shows a slight tilt due to earthquake effects over the centuries.
