The Thakurbari or the house of the Tagores, is in Jorasanko, north of Calcutta. It was built in the 18th century by Prince Dwarkanath Tagore (Rabindranath Tagore's grandfather). The complex has several buildings. Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) was born here. The house is today a museum. The Rabindra Bharati University which specializes in the fine arts is also in this complex.
