The Palace of Libraries and Bronzes The Thanjavur Maratha Palace is a sprawling royal complex in Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu, India, begun by the Nayak rulers around the mid-16th century and later the seat of the Bhonsle Maratha dynasty that ruled Thanjavur from 1674 to 1855. Rather than a single building, it is a warren of courtyards, halls and towers that today houses the Saraswathi Mahal Library, one of the oldest in Asia, the Thanjavur Art Gallery with its celebrated Chola bronzes, a Maratha durbar hall and a bell tower.
