Kirti Mandir, meaning Temple of Fame, is the royal mausoleum of the Gaekwad dynasty of Baroda, built to commemorate Maharaja Sayajirao III's 50-year reign. The Indo-Saracenic structure is distinguished by its interior murals painted by Nandalal Bose, a pioneer of modern Indian art. The central hall features a map of undivided India on the floor and celestial symbols representing the cosmos. Understated from the outside, the interior quality makes it a rewarding stop for art and heritage enthusiasts.
