Visakha Museum

Officially called the Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation Museum, Visakha Museum is located along the golden sands of Ramakrishna Beach.

The museum is a repository of historical treasures and regional artefacts.


Visakha Museum is housed in a 150-year old Dutch bungalow and was opened to the public in 1991 after the bungalow was restored.

The Museum's collection includes crockery, unexploded Japanese bomb from World War II, manuscripts, stuffed animals, ancient weapons, jewellery, portraits, silk clothing, diaries, periodicals, maps, letters and scrapbooks.

Many of the exhibits in the Museum chronicle the lifestyle and traditions of the early settlers of the region.

Besides the rich and varied collection of the Museum, the architecture of the bungalow is breathtakingly beautiful.
