Rabindra Museum, Literary museum in Mangpu, India.

The Rabindra Museum is a memorial space for writer Rabindranath Tagore in Kurseong, housing his personal possessions, manuscripts, and photographs. The rooms display different aspects of his life and creative work.

The museum was established in the 1950s and uses the former home of a Tagore family friend. Converting the residence into a memorial space preserved the historical character of the location.

The museum reflects how Tagore's work shaped cultural life in Bengal and continues to be valued throughout the region. Visitors can observe how his ideas remain present in local schools and artistic circles.

The museum sits in the Kurseong hills and is best reached on foot since the area is relatively compact. Visitors should wear comfortable clothing as some areas span multiple levels.

The West Bengal Heritage Commission marked the museum with metal plaques to acknowledge its protected status. These plaques indicate official commitment to preserving the site.
