Rabindranath
Tagore
came
to
Kushtia
in
the
end
of
the
nineteenth
century.
He
was
the
landlord
of
this
region
and
also
businessmen.
During
British
period,
Hindu
families
tend
to
set
up
family
businesses
among
the
partnership
of
family
members.
Tagore
patronized
his
family
business
and
established
a
private
company
named
“Tagore
and
Company”.
Millpara was
the
industrial
and
commercial
area
at
that
period.
You
can
find
many
mill
factories
in
this
region
but
those
are
abandoned.
So
Rabindra
set
up
this
duplex
building
as
the
office
of
his
business
named
as
Tagore
Lodge.
This
building
was
elongated
to
the
east-west.
The
main
gateway
is
in
the
north.
Iron
made
spiral
staircase
is
in
the
west.
At
the
beginning
the
business
growth
was
significant.
But
later
he
failed
to
make
revenue
and
gave
up.
Now
this
building
has
renovated
and
newly
painted
by
both
the
governments
of
Bangladesh
and
India.
A
metal
made
statue
of
Ravindranath
Tagore
has
been
placed
there.
But
the
building
opens
occasionally,
when
people
comes
here
with
reference
or
guest
from
government
official
invitation
can
visit
this
lodge.
Note:
You
don't
need
any
ticket.
