Nabha House is a palatial building which was used by the royal family of Nabha as residence for the days religious performances were being done at Kurukshetra.[1] It was adopted by Archaeological Survey of India in 2005 and they worked 9 years, spending close to INR 1.5 crore to bring it back to its original form.[2][3]
The entire Nabha House is built on a raised platform. The eastern side of the house has the main entrance gate. The door is made of wood and iron nails are used to decorate it. Both the sides of the gate are well decorated with four Miharab. The gate takes the visitor into a rectangular yard. The second floor of the house also has two pillared windows. At the top of the monuments, a 15 feet temple is built which is dedicated to Lord Brahma.[1]
