The Bangalore Palace, envisioned by Chamarajendra Wadiyar X, served as a crucial secondary administrative and ceremonial hub for the Mysuru Royal Family within Bengaluru, distinct from their primary seat in Mysore. Its construction and subsequent expansion by the Wadiyar dynasty underscored their strategic interest in Bengaluru, which was rapidly emerging as a significant urban and administrative centre under British influence. This palace became a venue for state banquets and official receptions, particularly for British Residents and high-ranking colonial officials, thereby playing a subtle yet pivotal role in diplomatic engagements and solidifying the intricate relationship between the princely state and the British Raj. The architectural synthesis, blending Indo-Scottish Baronial and Tudor Revival styles with subtle Indic elements, was not merely an aesthetic choice but a deliberate statement of evolving royal identity and authority in a period of complex political transitions. Beyond its ceremonial functions, the palace was a site for important discussions concerning the administration of the Bangalore Civil and Military Station, a British-controlled enclave, highlighting its unique position in the intricate power dynamics of the era. The acquisition and transformation of Rev. J. Garrett's property into a regal residence by the Wadiyars in 1878 CE marked a significant moment in their assertion of presence and patronage in Bengaluru. It provided the Maharaja with a suitable urban retreat and a platform to engage with the city's burgeoning elite, fostering a sense of royal continuity and influence amidst the changing socio-political landscape of late 19th-century Karnataka.
