Serampore#Police stations

The name 'Serampore' (also known as 'Srirampur') is believed to have originated from terms such as 'Sripur', 'Sri Ram', or potentially 'Seetarampore', which is associated with a prominent Ram-Seeta temple in the region.

The modern city of Serampore was formed through the amalgamation of several villages, including Mahesh, Ballavpur, Akna, Sripur, Gopinathpur, Manoharpur, Chatra, Rajyadharapur, Naoga, Sheoraphuli, and Shimla-Sataghara.{{cite web |url=https://sbh.icomos.org/images/2017_India/Studytour-along-the-Hooghly-Info.pdf |title=Europe along the Hooghly |publisher=ICOMOS |access-date=2025-07-04}}

The city is several centuries old and has undergone significant transformations. It witnessed the arrival and establishment of a Danish settlement, which was later followed by a period of British rule. After the British acquisition in 1845, the city experienced substantial industrial development, including the construction of railways and factories, leading to its emergence as an industrial hub.

The process of urbanization in Serampore can be understood through three distinct phases: a pre-urbanization period occurring before 1755, an urbanization phase spanning from 1755 to 1854, and an industrialization phase from 1854 to 1947.{{cite web |url=https://ijcrt.org/papers/IJCRT2103592.pdf |title=THE FORGOTTEN FREDERIKNOGORE- DOCUMENTATION OF DANISH GOVERNMENT HOUSE, KOLKATA |publisher=IJCRT.org |access-date=2025-07-04}}{{cite web |url=https://en.banglapedia.org/index.php/Serampore |title=Serampore - Banglapedia |publisher=Banglapedia |access-date=2025-07-04}}

Prior to the Mughal era, the area situated between the Saraswati River and Hooghly River was a flourishing local community. Sheoraphuli served as a crucial distribution center for goods produced throughout Hooghly, which encouraged many families to settle in the area before 1755.

Certain cultivating communities, including Sadgops and Manas, established settlements in specific areas such as Sadgop Para, Mana Para, and Lallakanta Para. Indigenous groups like the Jele Kaibartas and 'Sani' Muchis were present from the early days, residing in their designated localities. The area also hosted Sunni Muslims, who were descendants of Mughal soldiers, traders, and artisans; they lived in Mullick Para and Mussalman Para, where a mosque stands as evidence of their historical presence. During the Mughal period, Akna (now known as Akra Bati Lane) and Mahesh were densely populated. The region's warm and humid climate was ideal for the textile industry, with local lands renowned for cultivating cotton and silk. Hindu weavers specialized in producing fine cotton fabrics, while Muslim weavers dominated silk manufacturing. Additionally, the fertile land yielded abundant crops of paddy, jute, and betel-leaf, and the Kaibartas utilized the marshy areas for fishing.

In the era preceding its urbanization, primary communication in the Serampore region was facilitated by river routes, complemented by the presence of the 'Badshahi Sadak' (Grand Trunk Road). Prior to the arrival of the Danes, Sheoraphuli Hat served as a central internal trade hub, maintaining significant commercial connections with various districts of East Bengal (now Bangladesh), including Barisal, Khulna, Dhaka, Mymensingh, and Rajshahi. Between the 14th and 18th centuries, many foreign merchants, such as the French, Portuguese, and Dutch, established trading outposts, known as "Kuthis," to engage in commerce.

The urbanization phase in Serampore commenced with the acquisition of land by the Danes in 1755, as part of the Danish colonial empire in India. In that year, the Danish East India Company dispatched a representative from its Tranquebar office to secure a parwana (royal decree) from Nawab Alivardi Khan, which would permit them to conduct business in Bengal. They obtained this right and acquired three villages – Sripur, Akna, and Serampore – from the Nawab by agreeing to pay an annual rent of 1601 sicca rupees to the local Zamindar. For their new factory and port, the Danes secured three bighas of land at Sripur on the riverfront and an additional fifty-seven bighas at Akna, with governance overseen from Tranquebar. By 1770, Danish merchants were achieving notable progress in regional trade and commerce. This prosperity was further aided by the effective administration of Colonel Ole Bie, who became Serampore's first Crown Regent in 1776.{{cite web |url=https://natmus.dk/historisk-viden/forskning/dansk-kolonihistorie/oversigt-over-danske-kolonier/serampore/ |title=Serampore |publisher=National Museum of Denmark |access-date=2025-07-04}}{{cite web |url=https://sbh.icomos.org/images/2017_India/Studytour-along-the-Hooghly-Info.pdf |title=Europe along the Hooghly |publisher=ICOMOS |access-date=2025-07-04}}

The Danes additionally established a bazaar, which is today known as Tin Bazaar, and permitted the maintenance of private godowns (warehouses). The town gradually flourished, becoming elegant and prosperous, attracting both foreign and indigenous merchants to settle there. Initially, the Danes relied on their factors for acquiring commodities, particularly silk and cotton fabrics. Over time, they became directly involved in collecting merchandise from producers and incentivized artisans with earnest money for high-quality goods. They also developed a class of trading middlemen, including agents, banias, mutsuddis, and stevedores.

The Hundi business (money lending and banking) was another significant source of Danish income. Colonel Ole Bie, the Danish Governor, aimed to develop Serampore into an attractive tourist destination. Under his patronage, the town became well-protected with a robust system for maintaining law and order. A new Court House was constructed for municipal, administrative, and judicial functions, a metalled road was laid along the riverbank, and grand palatial buildings were erected. The local civil administration operated through a 'Village Committee,' serving as a prototype of a municipality, with Ole Bie as its Governor. The flourishing period of Danish overseas trade largely coincided with Ole Bie's tenure as Head of the factory, from 1776 to 1805, with minor interruptions.

Local textile businessmen, Sobharam Basak and Anandaram Dhoba, were appointed as the first Danish factors. Nandlal Chakravarty served as their initial agent, later promoted to "Dewan." Patitpaban Ray from Katulpur (Bankura) and Safali Ram Dey were engaged as agents for supplying Saltpetre. Brothers Raghuram Goswami and Raghavram Goswami migrated from Patuli to Serampore seeking opportunity; Raghuram secured a position at the Danish Governor's commissariat, while Raghavram became the factory's official moneylender. Together, they accumulated substantial wealth, acquired extensive lands, and established an aristocratic colony on Serampore's western side for their family, whose descendants still reside there. To encourage weavers in Akna and Mohanpur villages, the Danes provided advances for cotton and fine silk products. The merchants also set up their own factory for producing fine cloths. They collected 'Hammer' and 'Luckline' ropes for ships, alongside various other ropes and agricultural goods. They also encouraged cultivators in Pearapur to grow Indigo in addition to paddy rice, with Mr. Princep acting as their indigo agent.

On 11 October 1845, Serampore was sold to Britain and subsequently integrated into British India, with its original Bengali name officially restored. Following their acquisition, the British focused on improving the town's civic amenities. The earlier 'Village Committee' was transformed into the Serampore Municipality in 1865, which also came to include Rishra and Konnagar. Serampore was also turned into a sub-division of the Hooghly district in 1845.

With significant capital investment from the British, Serampore transitioned from a commercial town into an industrial hub. A pivotal factor in this transformation was the laying of the Railway line from Howrah to Bardhaman in 1854, which brought about substantial changes in the town's social fabric. Between 1866 and 1915, six additional jute mills were established across Rishra, Serampore, and Chandannagar. Local landlords and mill-owners facilitated the habitation of the labor force by developing workers' colonies in "mouzas" such as Mahesh, Akna, and Tarapukur, adjacent to the Ganges. These included colonies like Odia basti, Gayaparabasti, Chhapra Basti, and Telenga Para Basti. The influx of these migrant workers led to a significant population increase in Serampore, from 24,440 to 44,451 between 1872 and 1901. The first jute mill was set up at Rishra in 1855, and the second one opened in Serampore in 1866. Along with jute mills, many other subsidiary factories emerged in the rural and fringe areas of the town.

During this period, various municipal and infrastructural developments took place. In 1914, the Municipality arranged for the supply of filtered potable water. The Town Hall was established in 1927 in memory of Kishori Lal Goswami. A weaving school was founded during the 1930s, which later gained the status of a Textile College, and the municipality began providing electricity in 1938.

After approximately fifty years of British possession, Serampore was greatly influenced by the Bengal Renaissance and a Bengali cultural and nationalist movement. This nationalist spirit significantly impacted many middle-class youths, leading to a decline in foreign investment in industries but a corresponding increase in indigenous investment. The Bangalakshmi Cotton Mill, for instance, was founded reflecting the swadeshi spirit. From the turn of the 20th century, numerous primary schools and educational institutions were established throughout Serampore. Furthermore, descendants of older aristocratic families contributed their residential buildings for benevolent purposes.

The beginning of the 19th century marks a significant period in Serampore's history due to the arrival of four English missionaries: William Carey, Joshua Marshman, Hannah Marshman, and William Ward. These individuals are considered the architects of the Serampore renaissance. Although their primary purpose was to preach Christianity, they dedicated themselves to serving the ailing and distressed, spreading education, initiating social reforms, and contributing to social reconstruction. Hannah Marshman notably established the first Girls' School at Serampore, which received considerable public approval.

An outstanding contribution was the founding of the Serampore Mission Press by Carey in 1800, where wooden Bengali types made by Panchanan Karmakar were installed. Between 1801 and 1832, the Serampore Mission Press printed 212,000 copies of books in 40 different languages. Carey became renowned as the father of Bengali prose. The Mission Press published several key Bengali works, including the Bengali translation of the Bible, Hitopadesha, and Kathopakathan. Additionally, Munshi Ram Basu, a pundit appointed by Carey, produced "Maharaja Pratapadiya Charita" (1802), "Kashidasi Mahabharat" (1802), and "Krittibas Ramayan" (1803). The first issue of the second Bengali daily, "Samachar Darpan" (1818), was released under Carey's editorship. At the same time, the Serampore Mission Press also published the English daily, "A Friend of India" (a precursor to "The Statesman"). Another significant contribution was the establishment of India's first paper mill at Battala, set up by John Clark Marshman (son of Joshua and Hannah Marshman), powered by a steam engine.

In this cultural development, the local inhabitants largely played a passive role, with only a few affluent landlords and businessmen sending their children to the missionaries' academic institutions. Meanwhile, those from lower economic strata sent their children to monitorial schools, which provided basic education. This process led to the emergence of a local gentry with a favorable view toward the missionaries. Serampore was also known for its Sanskrit schools ("Tole") and published journals like 'Gyanarunodaya' (1852), 'Satya Pradip', 'The Evangelist' (1843), 'Arunodaya' (1856), 'Sarbartha Sangraha' (1873), 'Aakhbare Serampore' (1826), 'Bibidha Barta Prakasika' (1875), 'Prakiti Ranjan' (1878) and 'Benga-Bandhu' (1882). Literary figures such as Rev. Lal Behari Dey, M. Tansdend, Narayan Chattaraj Gunanidhi, Kalidas Maitra, and John Robinson were highly active in their literary pursuits. Raja Ram Mohan Roy, considered the first modern man in India, is said to have been born at Chatra in Serampore at his maternal uncle's house, though this remains controversial. Other notable literary figures associated with Serampore include Dinabandhu Mitra (posted as postmaster), Bibhutibhusan Mukhopadhyay (spent childhood there), and poets Amiya Chakraborty and Haraprasad Mitra.

The crowning work of Carey and his two associates was the establishment of Serampore College in 1818. This institution functions both as a university through the Senate of Serampore College (University) and as an individual college. Its founders invested their last resources in constructing its magnificent buildings. It was also the first college in Asia to award a degree.

Following India's independence in 1947, Serampore has developed as a satellite town of Kolkata (formerly Calcutta); however, its urbanization and developmental changes are still in progress.{{cite web |url=https://en.banglapedia.org/index.php/Serampore |title=Serampore - Banglapedia |publisher=Banglapedia |access-date=2025-07-04}} Presently, it stands as one of the most developed urban centers within the main line region of Howrah.
