Attara Kacheri, State High Court in Cubbon Park, Bengaluru, India

The two-story red stone building showcases neoclassical architecture with Ionic porticoes and gneiss construction, located opposite the Vidhana Soudha.

Completed in 1868, Attara Kacheri initially housed eighteen administrative departments of the princely state of Mysore before becoming the Karnataka High Court.

The building's name derives from Hindustani, reflecting the governance system established by Chikka Devaraja Wadiyar during the 16th century.

The building contains multiple courtrooms, administrative offices, and a central hall displaying a portrait of Sir Mark Cubbon.

The structure survived two demolition attempts, with the first public interest litigation in Karnataka filed to protect it in the 1980s.
