About Lahore High Court
The Lahore High Court, completed in 1889, is one of the grandest colonial buildings in Pakistan, a soaring Indo-Gothic and Mughal-revival composition of red brick, arches and towers on the Mall. It remains a fully functioning superior court.
Its architecture makes it a highlight of any colonial-Lahore tour, best appreciated from the outside as a working institution.
