History

Raj Bhavan used to be the Governor's House during the British era. It was served as the summer residence of the Governors of Bengal. The permanent residence of the Governor was at the Belvedere Estate in Calcutta. However, during the hot summer time, the Governor used to shift his residence to Darjeeling, along with the whole office.

The Governor's House building was purchased in 1877 from the Maharaja of Cooch-Behar.

Even now, the Governor of West Bengal spends two weeks every summer at the Raj Bhavan in Darjeeling.
