Aga Khan Palace, Pune – Heritage of India

This palace was built in 1892 by Imam Sultan Muhammad Shah Agakhan III. He was elected as the President of the League of Nations in 1938 and was well renowned in the field of politics and sports. The palace was later donated to India by Aga Khan IV in 1969 as a mark of respect to Gandhiji and his philosophy.

This historic landmark was built by Sultan Mohammad Shah Aga Khan, as an act of charity to provide employment to famine hit people in the neighboring regions of Pune. This gracious building has many lush green gardens, salons and suites which makes it a historic monument.
