Dutch Tomes
Dutch Tomes
Laid to rest away from home
In the 17th and 18th centuries, Dutch traders from Holland came to Gujarat. They used to trade in cotton cloth, yarn and indigo. Surat was the main centre of their trade, but a small number lived in Ahmedabad. Some of them died here. These tombs were built in their memory. The stru...ctures reflect a mix of architectural styles. The inscriptions on some of the tombs are in Dutch and Latin. Ahmedabad had at least one another Dutch building, but it no longer exists. This was the Dutch Haveli on Gandhi Road.
Sad that none of this information is available in travel guides about Ahmedabad or in Wikipedia.
