History
One of the oldest existing Dutch palaces outside Holland, the palace was built in 1744 by Dutch traders and later extended and gardens were landscaped around it. The building was then the Governor's palace for the commander of Dutch Malabar, and in 1909 was leased to the British.

In 1947, when India attained independence, the palace became the property of the state and was converted into a heritage hotel resort.
