Aga Khan Palace, Pune

4

The Aga Khan Palace is recognized because of its significance in the Indian Independence Movement. It was constructed by Sultan Mohammad Shah, Aga Khan III. The palace is located in the district of Pune.

During the British rule, the Britishers held several of our freedom fighters and independence revolutionists imprisoned here. This is the very palace that Mahatma Gandhi along with his wife Kasturba Gandhi was held in prison, right after the Quit India Movement in 1942.

This palace is replete with memorials built in memory of our great Indian fighters and develops a sense of pride in us. They can be seen near the Mula River that flows beneath.
