The Attara
Kacheri, is a beautiful 19th century stone structure
in an intense red hue.This graceful, two storeyed
Building with Corinthian columns, was completed in 1864
and housed the Public
Offices from
1868 until 1956. These were later moved to the Vidhana
Soudha, and this building became the high court. On the
ceiling of its Central Hall is a Portrait of Sir Mark
Cubbon, Commissioner of Mysore from 1834 to 1861. Behind
the building
is an equestrian statue of him by Baron Marochetti.
