The Gandhi Smarak Sangrahalaya (Gandhi Memorial Institution) is a museum and was once a centre for Indian freedom struggle.
The museum is dedicated to preserve the work and memory and commemorate the life of Indian leader Mahatma Gandhi. It has an impressive collection of tens of thousands of letters to and by Gandhi, as well as photographs and books.
It was designed by the renowned architect Charles Correa beginning in 1958. The museum, Correa’s first important commission, consisted originally of 51 modular units, each 6 x 6 metres, surrounding a water court.
