THE BAGHELA MUSEUM IN REWA MP

THE BAGHELA MUSEUM

              Not many have the heart to spare the rich & personal gifts or valuables brought by the near and dears and put them to be displayed in the galleries for the crowed to see! Late Maharaja was not a greedy man. He decided to place his Royal belongings to the people to see & be proud of the rich Heritage!

                                 

          The Baghela Museum mirrors the richness of character of the Rulers of this dynasty & not the pompousness of kingship! This Museum could be divided in to 4 categories:

A. Arms Gallery:

         This has many types of swords & weapons used at that period. The old guns & also the new ones. Most famous is the "pen-pistol" & double barrel .22!

B. Mohan Gallery:

          This has the entire history about the White Tigers & the capture of Mohan, till his death.

WHITE Tiger MOHAN

C. Paintings & Rare Collections:

The paintings & rare collections are a treat to watch! The painting of Maharaja Raghuraj Singhji, Maharaja Gulab Singhji & Late H.H. Martand Singhji is unique! The throne & the character of the "Durbar Hall" is of a very intricate nature.







D. The Stone Gallery:


           The rich sculptures left by the Kalchuri Kings are a treat to see at this Fort Museum. Spread all over the Fort, this can offer a 3 to 4 hour observation to any keen and ardent observer. The Gurgi Gate, the 2 stone gate on the front of the Fort & the rich stone gallery inside the museum & Jagganath Temple offer a feast.
