Gola Ghar, Ammunition storehouse in Joysagar, Sivasagar district, India.

The rectangular brick structure measures 22.8 meters in length, 11.7 meters in width, with 2.15-meter-thick walls and ventilation holes throughout.

The ammunition depot was constructed during the reign of Chakradhwaj Singha between 1663 and 1669 near the Talatal Ghar complex.

The structure now functions as a museum gallery displaying traditional weapons, armor, and exhibits about gunpowder manufacturing techniques from the Ahom period.

Located 4 kilometers from Sivasagar town, the monument remains under the protection of the Archaeological Survey of India, Guwahati circle.

The building features a distinctive two-layered roof design and includes circular openings on both front and back facades for ventilation purposes.
