Gandhi Smriti, Delhi

Gandhi Smriti or Gandhi Smriti Museum is the place where the Father of the Nation, Mahatma Gandhi spent the last 144 days of his life. Gandhi Smriti was first called by the name of Birla House or Birla Bhawan. This is also the place where Nathuram Godse was shot dead by Mahatma Gandhi on January 30, 1948. The central government took possession of this house in 1971 and opened it to the general public on August 15, 1973.

There is also a martyr pillar where Mahatma Gandhi was shot dead. Many articles related to Mahatma Gandhi's life and death are also shown in the museum. There are huge collections of photographs in the museum and the books and other items used by them are also kept. Originally this house belonged to the Birla family, where Mahatma Gandhi used to stop while coming to Delhi. I

There is a pillar outside the museum on which there is a symbol of the spirit and symbol of Om. If you want to feel the life of Mahatma Gandhi, the messenger of peace, then go there in this place. The peace and stagnant atmosphere of this place motivates you to spend more time here.

This museum is closed on Mondays and other national holidays and is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
