A view of Haveli Barood Khaana Shahi Qila. Haveli Barood Khana an 18th century haveli. It was built during the Sikh rule during 18th century by a commanding general of the Sikh Army, who used it as his house. Part of the haveli acted as an ammunition depot and part was used as a residence. It was the norm at that time to keep ammunition at the commanding officer's house. The haveli was the largest depot outside the Shahi Qila and faced the fort directly. Currently, the haveli owned by Yousuf Salahuddin a socialite and philanthropist who resides in it. Salahuddin inherited the haveli from his family after his forefather, Mian Karim Buksh, bought it in 1870
