Details

During the time of Emperor Akbar, Shah Shuja and the subahdar of Bengal, Safsi Khan, built this Hammam in 1649. Safsi Khan was appointed in Jessore as Army Commander of Subadar Shah Suja in 1649. He used to live in a place called Trimohini which is 7 Km westwards from Keshobpur. According to his name, this place was later named Mirjanagar. His residence, once renowned “Nawabbari” is now in ruins. Apart from the Hammamkhana, everything has gone into ashes now. This hammam is rectangular shaped and situated in East-West line, following traditional Mughal style of architecture. It has four pillars and two rooms in every side. The rooms of the east side were used to store water. The windows were built in higher than usual to ensure privacy. There was a 9 feet deep well in the east surrounding. Water collected from this well was collected to gather and later used in shower. There are some underground rooms which were used as storage. In 1996, the Department of Archeology announced it as an archeological site.
