One of the most unique experiences in Agra. Sadly, one of the least promoted places to the level where even the locals are not aware of this place. Visit it to enjoy a good quiet time in the middle of the city.

One of the lesseer known monuments of Agra. Designed using sandstone with typical mughal-style engravings, arches, domes, and symmetrical designs. An architectural delight !!

Hessing's tomb is located in the Padretola, or Padresanto, a Christian cemetery in Agra: The tomb of John Hessing, hard by, is a still more splendid edifice, being a copy, in red sandstone, of the famous Taj Mahal, and on a pretty extensive scale too, though far smaller than the original. The tomb, which was completed in or about the year of the British conquest, bears an inscription in good English, setting forth that the deceased colonel was a Dutchman, who died Commandant of Agra, in his 63rd year, 21 July 1803, just before Lake's successful siege of the place.*
The Tomb was built by John Hessing's wife, Alice.
