Very nice

This place was not in my visiting list. I was waiting for the hindu temple situated within the vellore fort to open. Since I had nothing to do, i was walking around the place and suddenly found this museum. This is a very small museum. You don't need to buy any ticket for it. though there is not many sculptures, the ones available there are really good.

It is a quite and calm place inside vellore fort. You can visit the church and see monkey inside and outside the site.

A museum under the Archeology Survey of India. It's maintained in two buildings and it has a variety of sculptures collected from various places. They are carvings from the time of different dynasties. The sculptures of different incarnations like Lord Vishnu,Shiva,Ganesha and other mythological characters are maintained. It's near to the Jalakandeshwar temple and the Vellore fort. People who visit the temple can visit this place too.

The collection is amazing but still many things is to be done.

Well maintained archeological museum. Can see old remaining of temples nearby and also the old fort. The museum is situated inside the big fort present in the heart of the town.

If you are visiting vellore fort, you can visit Museum also. Very simple and normal exhibits.

Super place

Good

Nice and History

Educational area

Badsha and Begum Mahal. Presented 8_16 century sculpture, hero stones, potteries and many more (many are broken).

Free entry but for that there seems to be nothing, one can not avoid feeling as if arrived at a temple not maintained. Many empty spaces show alteration removing exhibits probably moving to safe or other places. The absence of historic vellore is obvious with disappointment. Restroom not available. It is pathetic because the vast area around is under their control.

Worth visiting ...Best collection of Gandhiji's paintings and sketches.

It Reminds the past of our culture...

Route map and directions good

Must visiting place

Dead bodies, bones of animals , small place, entry charged 5₹, photos charges 20₹. Nothing special to see.

This museum is under the Central Government ASI.It's just the opposite state museum. In this museum is evidence of the relationship between Fort and Freedom War.
