'''Jubilee Hall''' is a royal palace built in 1913 during the reign of [[Osman Ali Khan|Mir Osman Ali Khan]] of [[Hyderabad state|erstwhile Hyderabad state]] in India. It is considered one of the architectural masterpieces of Hyderabad.<br />

<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
In 1937, the [[silver jubilee]] coronation of the [[Osman Ali Khan|HEH Nizam VII]] was held here, hence the name. A special gold plated chair was made on this occasion with his [[Crest (heraldry)|crest]] inscribed. The chair is now exhibited at [[Purani Haveli]]. <br />
<br />
The [[Nizam]], on the occasion, received gifts and mementos. The Royal works and paintings from the Durbar still adorn the building. <br />
<br />
At the time the world was yet to see another Indian spectacle of pomp and power as that of the Jubilee Durbar, with warlike display of 10,000 Hyderabad troops.<br />

The building was designed by [[Zain Yar Jung]]. The building has an elegant facade built in the Indo-Persian style. At the center, a small but high stage for the throne of Nizam was built, in the shape of 'Dastar'(Crown) of the Nizam. It is clearly visible as the white square in the middle. <br />
<br />
The huge rectangular hall of the Jubilee Hall, served as the State's Legislative Council for 27 years, before the Council moved to its present building. Jubilee Hall now serves as a state conference hall and for State Government functions.<br />
