The Calcutta High Court is the oldest High Court in India. It has jurisdiction over the state of West Bengal and the Union Territory of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. The High Court building s design is based on the Cloth Hall, Ypres, in Belgium. The court has a sanctioned judge strength of 72. The Calcutta High Court is one of the three High Courts in India established at the Presidency Towns by Letters patent granted by Her Majesty Queen Victoria, bearing date June 26, 1862, and is the oldest High Court in India. It was established as the High Court of Judicature at Fort William on July 1, 1862, under the High Courts Act, 1861, which was preceded by the Supreme Court of Judicature at Fort William. Despite the name of the city having officially changed from Calcutta to Kolkata in 2001, the Court, as an institution retained the old name. The bill to rename it as Kolkata High Court was approved by the Cabinet on July 5, 2016, alongside the renaming of its two other counterparts in Chennai and Mumbai However, the High Court still retains the old name.

The neo-Gothic High Court building was constructed in 1872, ten years after the establishment of the court itself. The design, by then government architect Walter Granville, was loosely modeled on the 13th-century Cloth Hall at Ypres, Belgium.

The seat of the Calcutta High Court is at Kolkata, capital of West Bengal. As per the Calcutta High Court (Extension of Jurisdiction) Act, 1953, the Calcutta High Court s jurisdiction was extended to cover Chandernagore (now called Chandannagar) and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands as of 2 May 1950. The Calcutta High Court extended its Circuit Bench in Port Blair, the capital of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, and in Jalpaiguri, the headquarters of the Jalpaiguri division of West Bengal.

Very old building. people still have faith in the judiciary system

The oldest high court in India. Huge building. During the weekdays there are too much crowd at this place. Lots of cars are being parked in front of the High Court. If you are planning to take photos of this place, I suggest you to go there on Sundays. You'll find a quite and calm environment here.

THE MOST WORTHLESS HIGH COURT OF INDIA, WHERE YOUR CASE CAN BE STUCK UP EVEN AFTER YOU ARE DEAD.WHAT A SHAME REALLY.

One of the most beautiful buildings not only of Kolkata but all of India. Must experience the vibe and atmosphere also.

The Kolkata High Court, exercising original jurisdiction over the city and appellate jurisdiction over West Bengal, is also located there. A number of national government institutions including the National Library, the Indian Museum, and the Geological Survey of India are in the city as well.

One of the beautiful court in India due to it's design ..

Old heritage building located in the heart of the city

Never had the opportunity to venture inside this record room of the Calcutta High court. I have passed through this building a number of times. Initially this building was used by the Calcutta port trust for its own purposes. I have always wondered why Calcutta High court keeps its records at this place. This place has a law and order problem. As it comes under the port area a lot mafia activities are carried out here.
