This magnificent building, is situated opposite to
Vidhan Soudha, was constructed in 1867 in Gothic Style. The offices
of the eighteen departments of Revenue and General Secretariat grew
to such a size during Tipu's reign that it could not be contained in
his palace. So, he constructed a new building and named it Attara
Kacheri (meaning eighteen offices or departments) in Hindustani.
This two storey building is built in European classical style and
is now known as the High Court building. This deep red building is a
perfect blend to the white columned Vidhana.
