Keladi Museum, Karnataka
To Get Close To The Culture Of The Keladi Rulers, To Know More About The Relics Of Indian Cultural Heritage Of The Last Three Centuries And Some Of Its Important Aspects That Are Preserved, The Keladi Museum Is A Must Visit. The Keladi Museum Is The Only Rural Museum That Consists Of Manuscripts, Sculptures And Paintings. The Museum Was Established By Sri. Keladi Gunda Jois About 20 Years Back. During That Time, Sri Keladi Gunda Did Not Have Enough Funds To Maintain Proper Staff And Provide Facilities. Over A Period Of Time, Board Of Trustees Consisting Of Eminent Scholars Was Formed. It Was Then That From 1985 Onwards The National Archives, National Museum Of Delhi And The Government Of Karnataka Started Issuing Small Donations That Helped Grow The Museum. Today, The Museum Has A Research Centre And A Publication Wing. The Board Of Directors Of The Museum Undertook The Difficult Task Of Publishing A Study Of "Sivatattva Ratnakara", The Famous Encyclopaedic Work On History, Politics, Administration, Dance, Drama, Music, Sculpture, Literature And Painting. Many Ancient Artefacts Are Carefully Preserved In The Museum In The Vicinity Of The Rameshwara Temple At Keladi. This Rural Museum Is The Actual Storehouse Of Historic Accounts Of Keladis And Is A Resource Centre For Research Scholars And Students. The Museum Has A Collection Of Rare Objects Which Include Swords, Combs, Manuscripts, Coins And Brass Idols. Paintings That Exude Creativity Are Preserved At The Museum. An Illustration Of Queen Victoria And The Countries Colonized By The British In An Exquisite Work Of Art Called The Guardian Angel Of The British Empire Is A Masterpiece In Keladi Museum. Things Are Exhibited From 10am To 5pm Except Monday And Other Government Holidays.
