Jajarkot Palace is a historic place located in Jajarkot District, Karnali Province, Nepal.

The palace was built by the King of Jajarkot Hari Shah in 1825 (Bikram Sambat).[1] The palace was originally seven storeys and was reduced to four storeys due to the 1934 Nepal–India earthquake.[2] The April 2015 Nepal earthquake further damaged the building.[3][4]
