Gumbaz - E - Shahi, Srirangapatna - History details

Built by Tipu Sultan (1782–1784) at Srirangapatna, Mandya, this Indo‑Islamic mausoleum enshrines Hyder Ali (center), Fakhr‑un‑Nisa (east) and Tipu (west, buried 1799). The dome rests on 36 black‑granite pillars; interiors bear tiger‑stripe motifs, and a cypress garden and Masjid‑E‑Aksa adjoin it. Original carved doors now in London were later replaced with ebony‑and‑ivory panels.
