A closer look
Discover Anand Bhavan
Anand Bhavan is the former Nehru family residence, now a house museum. Its rooms and setting offer a more personal way into the story of India’s freedom movement.
The wider complex also includes Swaraj Bhavan and the Jawahar Planetarium. Plan the museum as your main visit, and check which additional spaces and programmes are available on the day.
What to look for
A historic home
Explore the residence and its interpretation of the Nehru family’s life and public work.
Swaraj Bhavan
The earlier family house became an important centre of the independence movement. Check access separately when planning your visit.
Architecture and gardens
Pause outside to take in the verandas and garden setting before continuing to the city’s other museums.
A little planning goes a long way
- Confirm current admission arrangements, closing days and photography rules before setting out.
- Planetarium programmes require a separate check; do not assume a show coincides with your museum visit.
- Leave enough time to read the displays and ask staff about access to different parts of the complex.
