Kabi Jasimuddin Museum

The Kabi Jasimuddin Museum is a two-story building that houses personal items, manuscripts, photographs, and memorabilia of the Bengali poet Jasimuddin. The exhibits include his camera, furniture, and various personal belongings that offer insight into his life and work.

The museum was founded in 2017 to preserve the legacy of Jasimuddin, a poet who dedicated himself to rural Bengali culture. He collected thousands of folk songs and documented the traditions and stories of village life through his writing.

The museum displays original manuscripts of famous works like Nokshi Kanthar Maath and Sojan Badiar Ghat, which capture the essence of traditional Bengali village life. Through these writings, visitors can see how the poet connected deeply with rural communities and folklore.

The museum offers exhibits that visitors can explore at their own pace, with some guided information available. Comfortable walking shoes and weather awareness are recommended, especially during the hotter months.

The museum grounds are part of the family heritage and sit near the Kumar River, with a family cemetery preserving memories of ancestors. During the annual Jasim Mela festival, the surrounding fields transform into a festival space that celebrates the poet's cultural legacy.
