A museum showcasing history and outstanding achievements of one of the most decorated regiments of Indian Army

Must watch place near Ooty well equipped facility . We can see all the history inside the building. Weapons , armour and all other equipment used by military are displayed here . Photography is not allowed inside the museum.

Nice place to visit. You can see multiple weapons used in the war. They also show video of the regiment. Well maintained and it is ease place for physically challenged persons. They have a store where you can get showcase items related to war and regiment at the best price. Canteen available for snacks and drinks.

An excellent museum of the Madras Regiment. Everything is automated when one walks to the various zones of the museum. From history to states, from battle ground to soldiers, from medals to weapons, from audio visual representation to life size statues, from tanks to bunker. An honour to see and experience all this in one place that's the Madras Regiment museum. Salute to the Madras Regiment. Proud to be an Indian and the Indian army. A must visit place if you are in Ooty.

Museum is in the Madras Regiment Centre compound. Lot of Army collections especially Guns used in different decades. Also played a informative video about MRC. Everything displayed nicely with brief writeup. No need of Guide. I took 3 hours there. Good experience. Ticket Charge ₹50

Good place to visit. Have captured many details and have a special AV of Operation Meghdoot. Do visit if possible. Souvenir shops have some cool things as well to help you cherish the memory

It is a military museum. The history covers the advent of British and pre independence wars in the South ,which eventually resulted in consolidation and establishment of British rule in southern India. It also covers the early raising of native infantry regiments under the Crown and their subsequent evolution into Madras regiment, one of finest regiments in the present day Indian Army.

Good place for students specially to connect their studies and stories posted there. But concern is they are asking to park the vehicle outside the entrance even though they have place for parking which can be improved. It's has automatic ticket machine. Entry ticket is 50 rs. Toilet is there inside.Small garden there around the museum. If anybody explaining the things then itw I'll be easy to understand.

Awesome museum from The Madras Regiment. Goosebumps when you see their video which they play. You can see the armory and history of the Regiment. Just loved it. The way they maintain it is awesome.

Great museum about the thambi’s very well maintained.the rose garden and souvenir shop are nice additions.the commentary,videos are of great help to understand the significance of this unit

My visit to the Madras Regimental Museum was truly remarkable. The museum's deep sense of patriotism resonated with me as I explored the rich history and battles fought by the regiments. What stood out was the seamless experience at the fully automated ticket counter, making entry a breeze. Located in Coonoor, away from the hustle and bustle of Ooty, this museum feels like a hidden treasure. It's a place that deserves more recognition for the unique experience it offers. I was pleasantly surprised by the museum's souvenir shop, which featured heavily discounted items. It's a fantastic spot to find meaningful mementos to take home. The highlight of my visit was the model bunker, allowing visitors to step into the shoes of a battlefield soldier. Equipped with real semi-automated rifles, helmets, and protective suits, this immersive experience added depth and excitement to my time there. In conclusion, the Madras Regimental Museum is an absolute must-visit. It offers a genuine journey through history in a peaceful setting, making it a hidden gem for history enthusiasts. If you're in the area, don't miss the chance to explore this exceptional museum. Dont miss it If you're in there!

Goosebumps hearing the stories of our bravehearts. You will get a guide inside and he will explain all the details. You can buy sovereigns from here...

One of best museum I would recommend for kids of high school or who keen to know about Indian Army. You can't take your camera or phone inside. Need to buy a ticket. There are operational hours and need to know. 3-5pm second half is shorter than morning slot. You will see a lot of history of India Army, especially Madras Regiment. Outside they maintain a lovely rose garden. Loved those roses. If you are in Coonoor or Ooty or Kothagiri, pls do plan this with kids.

A must visit place I might say. The history of Madras regiment is of glory and bravery. You can walk through viewing the various artifacts of the army and dive deep into history of various wars that our brave soldiers have fought. Inside the museum there is small theatre where you will be able to watch a short documentary feature about the Madras Regiment. It's bound to give you goosebumps. The ticket counter also has a souvenir shop.

We visited this Museum at Wellington, Coonoor. The Madras Regimental Centre is probably the First Battalion created by the British. It's an amazing museum and details the History of Indian Army and the Role played by MRC- the Brave Tamilians. A place one should definitely visit and learn about our wonderful Indian Army.

Very good historical records of Madras regiment. They have some LMG, and even heavy guns on display. A bit of Quaint Anachronism. Good for history buffs

An amazing museum. Must visit to know the history, traditions and evolution of the oldest regiment of indian army.A must visit for all and even kids will like it. Photography inside the museum is prohibited

Just go for it. It's absolutely amazing and made in such a modern way with amazing historical artifacts and will make you realize the evolution of The Madras Regiment and the Indian Army . Highly recommended ,. Instead of overrated tourist places, This museum is a must visit place and even kids love it
