About the Place

Kapurthala

Kapurthala was one of the princely states of Punjab situated close to Ludhiana city. Kapurthala is known for its stunning monuments and gardens. The architectural ambience of the palaces has quite resemblance with French and Indo-Saracenic architecture, sometime referred to as the “Paris of Punjab”. The worth visiting places in the district include The Sainik (Military) School, The Court Complex, The State Gurudwara, The War Memorial, The Moorish Mosque, Pushpa Gujral Science City and Jubilee Hall.

The Sainik School (Jagatjit Palace)

This magnificent structure, which Maharaja Jagatjit Singh had grandly named it as “Elysee palace” sat amidst gardens embellished with stone statutory and fountains. It is modeled on Versailles in France for which the city is some time called as Paris of Punjab. The palace is now the Sainik School, but the buildings with its ornate interiors and painted ceiling is open to public.

State Gurudwara

The state Gurudwara, located on Station Road was consecrated around 1916. Styled after Italian cathedrals, it has a lovely red marble dome. The building is set in a neatly landscaped garden. The blending of Indo-Saracenic motifs with British red bricks is surprisingly harmonious.
