Archaeological Museum

Historic evidences of Indus and Harappa civilisation are kept here as old as 2000 bc

This is a well maintained place with some very significant archaeological finds including the seals, tools, jewelleries, utensils, etc., used in the early and late Harappan phase. This helps picture how people lived around 3000 years ago, and how a lot of things still haven't changed. But you can't take photos inside. I wonder why!

Amazing place to know about Harappan culture, Bara Culture. Nostalgic. Staff was courteous. A good day out for kids. The museum is definitely our connection with the past and gives us an insight into how people lived about 2000-3000 years ago.

It is a Indus Valley civilization site and You can find Harrapan Era to Mughal Era things (pottery or other items of iron, bronze, silver) found in Ropar excavations from 1929 to till date.

Punctual and good staff. If you are interested in History you can visit.

Nice historical place..
Magical history

The place is absolutly amazing... My son had the Harappan Civilization's chapter in History. He really liked it... Lots of knowledge and great objects belonging to the Harappan Era...

It also has the site of excavation by it's side. And visiting the spot is allowed, but I would not recommend so as its a small elevated forest kind of an area, and I had spotted a MONGOOSE over there... So do take precautions...

Definately, the Museum is a must visit when in Ropar...

5 rs per person, UPI payment. Great experience

ONE MUST VISIT THIS PLACE. IT'S VERY GOOD. STAFF IS COOPERATIVE.

Museum contains remains of northern most excavated site of Indus valley civilization.

Must visit place to know about our history. The museum is well maintained . The book section was closed due to corona situation. Hope it was open as i saw some interesting books. Also the place should be promoted more. All the curious kids between the age of 7-15 years will love this place and get to know so much about history and civilization

I found a meteorite approx 200 gram

Ticket price is Rs.5/Person But online on the spot ...is situated on the bank of River Sutlej along the Ghaggar-Hakra beds. It is about 40 km north east of Chandigarh and it lies on Rupnagar – Chandigarh highway. In 1998, the museum was opened to the public.

Harappan Culture
A small but well maintained museum. it documents archaelogical discoveries (mainly pottery and coins) over 6 periods from Harappan (from 2000BC) to Kushana to Medieval (upto 1700AD)
The pottery and seal from Harappan era are interesting. The chronological order of representation makes you appreciate the progress made to some extent.

Museum has many excavated items, even dating 4000 years old. It tells how the Harappan culture spread and developed. It is closed on Friday so plan accordingly. Overall a nice place to visit.
