Lalbhai Dalpatbhai Museum, Art museum in Navrangpura, Ahmedabad, India.

The Lalbhai Dalpatbhai Museum is an art museum in Ahmedabad that displays Indian sculptures, bronzes, manuscripts, paintings, woodwork, and coins across two main galleries. The collection encompasses a diverse selection of artworks and historical objects that demonstrate various artistic techniques and materials.

The Lalbhai Dalpatbhai Institute of Indology was founded in 1956 by industrialist Kasturbhai Lalbhai and Jain monk Muni Punyavijayji, who donated his manuscript and painting collection as its founding holdings. As the collection grew, a separate museum building designed by architect Balkrishna Doshi was built next to the institute. Its collection opened to the public in 1984 and was formally inaugurated in 1985 by Braj Kumar Nehru, then Governor of Gujarat.

The museum houses a significant collection of handwritten Jain manuscripts and displays paintings from Gujarat with illustrated works spanning different periods. These pieces reflect the artistic and religious traditions of the region and are carefully preserved here.

The museum sits on the L.D. Institute of Indology campus in western Ahmedabad, near Gujarat University and L.D. College of Engineering, about 7 km from the railway station and 12 km from the airport. It is closed on Mondays and public holidays, so plan a visit on any other day between 10:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m.

The museum operates a conservation laboratory that specializes in restoring miniature paintings and performing preliminary cleaning of stone and metal artifacts. This specialized work allows delicate historical objects to be preserved for display.
