The
Karnataka High Court, the
High Court of the Indian state of
Karnataka, is housed in a building named
Attara Kacheri, meaning "eighteen offices". It is a two-storey building, red in colour and is built in the
neoclassical style. The name comes from the eighteen departments of the general and revenue secretariat of the
Mysore government that were moved here from their crowded premises in
Tipu Sultan's summer palace.
