Haturia House - Virtual Tour

Known as ‘Baghbari’ ("tiger house"), this house is located in the dense urban fabric of old Dhaka. The famous Sat Rawja mosque is on the south, while on the east side is the busy Abul Hasnat Road with its shops and restaurants.
Built around the 1920s, the house is also called ‘Haturia House’ named after the zamindari area in southern Bangladesh where the family had an estate. The owner and builder of the house was a member of the then Indian Civil Service, and a prominent member of the old Dhaka elite. The property was designated as a waqf estate with the grandson of the original owner as “muttawali”. The house with its compound and the original owning family with a rich history retains much of the flavor of old Dhaka as it was about hundred years ago.

Kabir House is one of the few private properties built in the early 1950’s, amidst the government housing and staff quarters on Eskaton Road.

After the 1960s, the house was developed to accommodate a growing family. Remained unused for years, the appeal surrounding the house is withering, just like the house itself.

Hidden Heritage - Homes in Dhaka

Hidden Heritage - Homes in Dhaka

The project “Hidden Heritage: Homes in Dhaka” forms part of a larger research initiative on “Silent Heritage: Buildings in Bangladesh” focusing on homes and other significant buildings, from the rural to the urban, and from the Mughal to the Modern. A heritage building need not be a monument or landmark building – it can be representative of an epoch or period in the history of the city or a distinctive living style. Buildings included in this project are not immediately identified or recognized as heritage buildings or landmark structures, but they do represent a particular architectural order or hold historical and social significance for the city.
