Demand to conserve Maharaja’s guest house at Thrissur Railway Station

The INTACH (Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage) has demanded to conserve the Maharaja’s guest house on the first platform of Thrissur railway station.

The guest house was built in 1902 during the construction of the Thrissur Railway Station by the then ruler Rajarshi Ramavarma. It was said to be used for overseeing the railway construction works and also as a royal guest house.

The INTACH suggested conserving and restoring the building into a railway museum as large-scale development works have been proposed at the station.
