    History

    Abbott Mount was established in the early 20th century by John Harold Abbott, an English businessman who envisioned it as a retreat for the European community. He developed the area, building several bungalows and a church, creating a small, self-contained settlement. During the British Raj, Abbott Mount served as a popular holiday destination for British officials and their families, who sought respite from the heat of the plains. After India's independence, the ownership of the properties gradually transferred to Indian hands. While some of the original structures remain, bearing witness to the past, Abbott Mount continues to retain its colonial charm and peaceful atmosphere, attracting tourists seeking a glimpse into history and a connection with nature.
