Abstract: Light curves of three galactic classical novae, KT Eri, V1405 Cas, and V1674 Her are presented. They include data from the Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO) project, which was collected and reduced via CHALAWAN-NARIT cluster. These data were compared to those obtained from other surveys including the AAVSO, ZTF, and ASAS-SN. Pre-nova light curves were detected. We find the quiescent mag V = 15.2±0.2 and 19.5±0.5 for V1405 Cas and V1674 Her respectively. GOTO, with its all-sky capability and reach of 21 mag, gives it excellent potential to make discoveries in fields including galactic nova studies.
