The Mayurbhanj Palace, also known as Rajbadi, is a grand heritage building located in Baripada, Mayurbhanj district, Odisha. It was the royal palace of the Maharajas of Mayurbhanj, which was a princely state during the British Raj. The palace is a remarkable example of classical Western architecture, featuring Doric-Corinthian columns and a blend of Greek and Victorian styles.
The construction of the palace began in 1804 under the orders of Maharani Sumitra Devi Bhanj Deo, and it was further developed during the reigns of Maharajas Krushna Chandra Bhanj Deo, Sriram Chandra Bhanj Deo, and Pratap Chandra Bhanj Deo.
