Malegarh Crematorium

Malegarh Crematorium is a historical place where the brave soldiers of the revolt of 1857 were cremated. It is a constant reminder of the past, more than 50 soldiers lost their lives during the rebel.

Earlier it was under Sylhet district of Bangladesh, which was under Karimganj district of west Bengal before the Independence of India.

This place served as the battlefield during the 1857 sepay mutiny. It was a point of the skirmish at the time of the mutiny, and it falls along the Indo- Bangladesh border.

However, Bangladesh border guards and BSF shifted their border fences to prevent the actual site from being a no man's zone. You will see a marble and stone plaque present on the site that says the story of the war.

Many efforts and steps have been taken for the preservation of this site by the state archaeology department. At this place, you will see various crematoriums where the sepeey cremated, and this crematorium reflects bravery and valor by every means.
