Gyan Museum

Gyan Museum orbits around the treasured assortments of naturalist, collector and gemologist, Mr Gyan Chand Dhaddha (1940-2004).  The museum offers a rare insight into history as seen by Dhaddha and the objects he collected. The museum houses over 1,000 treasured pieces, which he amassed during his lifetime including textiles, paintings, antique jewellery, vintage spectacles, rare inscriptions, and objet d'art from around the world, dating back to over 3,000 years.

A tribute by his sons, Suresh and Arun Dhaddha, the museum has been designed by the French designer Paul Mathieu, who envisioned the museum as a space where objects and ideas from diverse provenance and periods would not only be admired, but they would also inspire dialogue and push for new ways for visitors to experience them.
