When Bangladesh was established after the cessation of indigo cultivation in the subcontinent, the first conservation initiative was taken in 1972. Although this archeological site was used as an indigo factory in the early days of construction, it gradually came to be used as an office of the East India Company. According to historians, the indigo factory was probably established in the 1800s.

The factory bears witness to the tyranny and exploitation of Kenny, Simpson, James Hill, Ferguson Crawford, Warts, Hamilton and many other English rulers.
The Amjhupi indigo factory has two entrances. The entire Nilkuthi complex is spread over an area of 6 acres. The main building of the factory is located in the middle of the complex and there are flower gardens on either side of it. The main building in the middle has 15 rooms inside. The building also has a large hall room, dining room, ballroom and guest room.

According to legend, it was in this indigo factory that Robert Clive and Mir Jafar conspired to remove Sirajuddaula, the last independent Nawab of Bengal, from power. According to Nawabzada Abbasuddaula, the ninth generation of Sirajuddaula, Nawab Alivardi and Nawab Sirajuddaula came here by barge.
During the war of liberation the expatriate government of Bangladesh was also formed.
