Overview

Jagannath Ghat, built in European classical style with a drum-shaped crown atop, stood imposingly on the east bank of the river Hooghly. Sobharam Basak was the founder of Jagannath Ghat. Sobharam built the Ghat by the side of the Jagannath Temple. It is just 50 metres north from the base of the Old Howrah Bridge. Jagannath Ghat was one of the busiest steam navigation stations on the Hooghly River. From the mid 1800’s, it was the embarkation and disembarkation points for the steamship services between Kolkata and Allahabad. The upcountry steamers, carrying both freight and passengers, brought pilgrims from Bhagalpur, Monghyr, Dinapore, Ghazipur, Benares, and Mirzapur.
