History

The state of Baria was in the Rajputana region and later became a part of the Bombay presidency during the British Raj. The noted connection with the British of the Baria state was in 1785.

This town was established in 1524. Two sons of King Vatai Rawal escaped from this region when the king of Gujarat, Mohammad Beghda, tried to conquer Pavagadh. Udai Sinh, the elder brother, established the town of Chhota Udaipur, and the younger brother, Dungerpursinh, established Devgadh Baria. The family of Dungerpursinh ruled the Baria State for twelve generations. It was a princely state before India's independence in 1947. The detailed description of the genealogy of the rulers of the Baria State is provided on Baria Princely State site.

On 15 February 2015 the former royal family moved back into the Rajmahal, the original residence of the family. After getting the palace back from the government in 2006 and spending nine years on the renovations, it has been restored to its original glory.
