Jahan Kosha Cannon

Jahan Kosha Cannon (also known as the Great Gun, and literally means the Destroyer of the World) is placed in the Topekhana, 400 m to the south east of the Katra Mosque, in the town of Murshidabad, West Bengal, India. Topekhana was the Nawab's Artillery Park and the entrance gate of the old capital of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa, the city of Jahangir Nagar. It is protected on the east by the Gobra Nala, locally known as the Katra Jheel. Here, the Jahan Kosha Cannon is laid to rest.
