I just loved this wada. It was under renovation but now it's open to visit. No entry fees required. When you enter you will find all the history of the wada with details framed on the wall . Must visit if in Pune.

Vishrambaug Wada is a historical jewel that invites visitors to step into Pune's illustrious past. Its architectural beauty, cultural significance, and ongoing restoration efforts make it a must-visit for those seeking a tranquil escape into the bygone eras of Maharashtra's history. Whether you are an avid history buff or a casual explorer, Vishrambaug Wada offers a delightful journey through time within the bustling heart of Pune.

Its nice stone structure and Point of Architecture view beautiful building in Pune now there is post office . parking problem there but you can easily visit to this Wada.

This is a historical monument at center of Pune, once upon a time this was the residence of Peshwa Baji Rao-2, the last peshwa of Maratha kingdom. This is a building of 20,000 sq ft. Presently the ground floor houses a post office and few other offices. A part of it is open to tourists for visiting. Free entry. Photography allowed on request. 👍

Built in the year of 1811 by Peshwa Baji Rao the second, Vishrambaug Wada is a three storied Peshwa mansion, which still captivate everyone with its historical richness which it symbolizes now. Situated in Sadashiv Peth, at the intersection of Bajirao Road and Laxmi Road, this wada, although in neglect state, does display an excellence of architecture. The entrance is also magnificent with its carved pillars which are made up of teak-wood, still standing strong. The Vishrambaug Wada stands majestically amidst the hustle bustle of a busy market. Its cypress-shaped columns, decorated ceilings, stone floor and teak gallery on both the sides of entrance take you to a glorious era of Bajirao. On the first floor of the building, you will find a huge hall, darbar, with intricately carved ceilings, grand chandeliers along with teakwood pillars with exquisite carvings. Its magnificent teak balcony, where visitors are not allowed now, is said to the place from where Bajirao's musicians used to perform. A part of the wada is open for public visit, with the rest of the part being used as offices. Although just a few parts are seen, this place is worth exploring. It gives you a glimpse into the grandeur of Bajirao era in Maharashtra. The impeccable fineness with which it was constructed is something worth remembering and admiring. After the British take over, and the decline of Peshwa rule, Vishrambaug Wada was used a jail. It was also used to house the Pune Municipal Corporation office, from the year of 1930 to 1958. Currently, a number of Government offices operate from Vishrambaug Wada. A considerable section of it is also used at the post office. There is also a handicraft shop by SMILE (Savitri Marketing Institution for Ladies Empowerment) inside the Wada complex.

This was once the Residence of Peshwa. Its currently under maintenance but still visitors can visit. Its not as glorious as it was in the past. Still it deserves attention. Half of the area is used as post office and Library

Very old place in marathi empior , very rare place you will found such old architectural work with wooden👌 , Very poorly maintained, should be take more care, Near by u can also check famous market place Tulshibag , Mahalaxmi Road. Check Covid situation before going. Some renovation is going..I think.

Beautiful old architecture but unfortunately not well maintained. The entry fee is ₹10. There are informative posters inside the building which takes us through the history of Pune from the Peshwa rule to the dawn of the British rule. The architecture of the building is beautiful and it will take you back in the days. But unfortunately the building is not well maintained and you may see lots of dust settled in the place. The tour of the building will take around 45 min to 1 hour if you are carefully reading all the information. #pune #vishrambagh #vishrambaghwada #wada #shanivarwada #oldcity #history #peshwa #architechture #architechtural #monument #historic #peshwaempire #tourism #tour #trip

Vishrambaug Wada was built in 1807 AD at the price of Rs 200,000. It took six years to complete the construction.[2] Baji Rao II preferred this residence to the ill-fated Shaniwar Wada, the citadel of the Peshwas. Baji Rao II stayed here for eleven years until his defeat in the Third Anglo-Maratha War. After the war the British exiled him with a pension to Bithur near Kanpur. His wife, Varanasibai, continued to stay here for a while before joining him in Bithur. Soon the British took over Pune.[1] In 1821, the new East India Company rulers of Pune started the Hindoo college in the Wada to continue Sanskrit learning in the city. The college was the forerunner of the Poona college which later became Deccan College. A high school called Vishrambag High School also operated out of the palace. In 1871, an act of arson entirely destroyed the eastern wing of the wada. In 1930, the then Poona municipality bought the property from the colonial Bombay Presidency government for a sum of Rs 100,000[citation needed]. Until 1959, Municipality and its successor, the Pune Municipal Corporation(PMC) operated out of Vishrambaag Wada. Several PMC department offices were based in the wada until 2003.[3] Overall experience is very good 🙂

Hidden gem in the busy area of Pune town with amazing courtyards

Vishrambaug wada is one of the only well restored place from Peshwa era. It was also used to be a school in 18th century.

During my very shory visit in Pune I was lucky to visit that heritage.

This Vada is really good. we can see only the ground floor of it and can't go up in any of the rooms available there. Apart from that everything is quite good and historical.

Peaceful place and beautiful infrastructure gives very vintage vibes Do visit! No ticket entry.

It was a residence of Peshwa Baji Rao 2, the last Peshwa of Maratha. It was built in 1807. Nice place and well maintained. It is free for everyone.

Entry is free now. Renovation work is going on in the front side. But we can visit through the side gate. When I visited, less than 10 people were there. Nothing much here to see. Because of the renovation work.

Vishrambag Wada is one of the historical place in heart of Pune. Neat, clean, well maintained and managed place. This was the residence of Bajirao II 1800 AD. Bajirao II lived in this residence with his wife for 11 years or so. The wada is well build with heavy wooden carved column and beams. Carving work on the walls and pillers is still intact. The place is constructed over 20000 Sq ft. area. The Doors and Window are old times reminding the historical construction. Post Bajirao II leaving the place there was a school operated out of this place. A must see place during Pune visit.

The historical place from Maratha empire.. Ols bulding with wooden construction. Heritage place in pune

Nice place for just sitting and knowing the historical moments

This wada is built in year 1809. Excellent carving on wooden pillers, doors etc however very poorly maintained.

Due to renovation work and police posting, we have not visited this place. Took photographs from outside. It is situated at Bajirao Road, opposite Bank of Maharashtra Branch. Hope to visit this place soon.

Well maintained place which is known as residence of Peshwa Bajirao II...

Amazing place but very badly preserved by the authorities.

Fabulous carvings on wood but like numerous other monuments, very poorly managed. Might not even be preserved and later on some real-estate developer would encroach. Sad but reality.

I recently visited Vishrambaug Wada in Pune and was thoroughly impressed by the historical significance and beauty of this landmark. The intricate carvings on the wooden doors and windows are simply breathtaking and give a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the city. The museum inside the Wada is well-curated and provides a fascinating insight into the lifestyle and traditions of the Peshwas. The guides at Vishrambaug Wada are extremely knowledgeable and passionate about their work. They were able to provide detailed information about the architecture, history, and significance of each aspect of the Wada, making the visit even more enriching. The well-maintained gardens surrounding the Wada add to its charm and provide a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. Overall, I would highly recommend a visit to Vishrambaug Wada to anyone interested in history and architecture. It is truly a gem in the heart of Pune and a must-visit destination for tourists and locals alike.

Built in 1807.,this palace served as the residence for Baji Rao II .The principal architects were Mansaram Laxman and Daji Suthar and they were given a princely sum of Rs 72,000 for the work. Over the next six years the wada was completed at a cost of Rs 200,000. With three large courtyards, the 200 year old mansion is now converted into a museum, a library, a post office, and a local handicrafts shop.

The palace of the last Peshwa stands the way it did all those years ago sans any royalty at the moment. The Indian post and other offices occupy a half of the palace and only the other half is open. It is a simple museum like building and not a lot of visitors go there. So, you're free to enter it. The only downside is the heavy traffic around it.

It was beautiful.. had that maratha vibe in its architecture.. it had documentation of the conservation and renovation done to the structure and the glimpses of scenes in bajirao mastani can be visualised too!

It's located on Bajirao road opp Bank of Maharashtra on one side and Chitale bandhu on other side. It's a very crowded area normally. Car Parking will be a big problem, you may find 2 wheelers parking nearby. The wada got renewed recently but the work is still in progress. This place is having historical significance and has been in history books as well. You can visit it one time if u came to Pune.

This magnificent mansion is a three storied building and is also known as the Teen Chowki Wada for the same. It was built by the last Peshwa, Bajirao II as his residence.

Vishrambaug Wada pays credence to this point even further. Located in the heart of Pune, this mansion built in 1897 once served as the home of Peshwa Bajirao II. During those days, it was a picture of grandeur and luxury. Much has changed since then, but even today you can get a glimpse of that glorious era. Intricate woodwork adorns the entrance and the balcony of this three-storied mansion. Don’t forget to click some Instagram-worthy photos with your family during your visit to Vishrambaug Wada

the wada was built by one of the peshwa's as a place to relax. I went to visit Shaniwar wada but fortunately changed my plan and visited Vishrambaugh wada. The place was so quite irrespective of surrounding. the entrance and exterior of the wada was so interesting depicting maratha style architecture. wooden arches and wooden ceiling was so well maintained. the entrance has beautifully wooden carved brackets. entrance foyer has 2 sideways where an old man used to sit. he told me about the wada. after entering the wada has a huge open courtyard. the wada is now use in 2 to 3 parts. one of the part is use as pmc's office. the other half of the wada is use as extension for the oldest library of the city. yes, the oldest library of proper maratha culture. the place where the great writer pu la deshpande use to visit and many more marathi sahitik pour their knowledge. lets come back to the courtyard, here to the adjacent of the entrance foyer their comes two mini stairways to first floor. there i had to buy a ticket for visiting the museum, 10/- worth spending time their. it has museum where the history of pune city has been reserved. all the old maps of pune city with prototype of most of the historical buildings. very informative and those who is fond of maratha kingdom must visit the place. then comes a the interior of wada, again the wooden arches, carved barckets, struts and carved pillars can be seen. the old style interior, seating of proper bhartiya baithak is seen. the day was awesome and unforgottable i learnt much about peshwa's and maratha architecture and the royal maratha culture.

old constriction since 18s

Good place but missed to see in details

One of the most historical places of Peshwa empire is called vishrambaug Wada. This place still stands tall amidst the modern changes in the society with lots of concrete buildings around. It was built by the Peshwas during the maratha regime

This is an old mansion situated amidst the city. There is a museum in the first floor of the building. Even though there are not many relics on display here, a walk inside the museum would surely give you a glimpse of the history of the Maratha empire. Writings and pictures, depicting important events and stories pertaining to Maratha empire, are placed on the walls. If you have patience to read all the writings and observe all the pictures, you sure will learn a lot about Maratha kings and their life events. Apart from this, you can savour the structural beauty of the building (see the pictures). Besides that, there is nothing much to see here, so go with little expectations. There are some government offices operating in the ground floor of the building. You can surely enjoy the visit to this place if you have time on your hands. Note that there is no parking space available here. P.S. The entry fee to the museum is ₹10.
