Danish heritage at Serampore, ready for fresh start

Thanks to the National Museum of Denmark, Chandannagar and Serampore municipal plus the local administration, the history surely came and is coming alive before this generation. During my vagaboundish trips last year during covid pandemic, multiple rides, crossing the Bhagirathi,  Hooghly, Adi Ganga or just the river, once the world trade center of the earth in terms of "richness". They've done it. Even the Old Denmark Tavern  by The Park is driving people, post pandemic.
The old court house (a portion) can be leased  out to government and private people, The Telegraph India reported.
 
True, the Danish heritage is getting back its sheen and vibe and "the new wave of restoration projects is doing wonders by bringing back a slice of history to the present generation.", the paper reports.

The next would be around my trips to the places and shall dwell a little deep then.
