In 1930, a young German architect received from a Maharaja the commission to build and furnish a palace in India: Eckart Muthesius (1904-1989), son of the famous architect Hermann Muthesius (1861-1927), reformer of the art schools in Purssia and author on architecture, built and furnished for the Maharaja of Indore, Yeshwant Rao Holkar Bahadur, the residence "Manik Bagh Palace - Jewel Gardens". The Holkar's no longer live at the Manik Bagh Palace and the palace is today being used as the Office of the Commissioner, Customs & Central Excise, Indore.
