Ghalib ki Haveli, Memorial museum in Ballimaran, Old Delhi, India

The two-story traditional haveli features small rooms arranged around a central courtyard, displaying artifacts from the 19th-century Mughal period.

Mirza Ghalib, the renowned Urdu poet, lived in this residence from 1860 to 1869, spending his final years composing poetry within these walls.

The museum exhibits handwritten manuscripts, poetry collections, and personal belongings that document the literary contributions of Mirza Ghalib to Urdu literature.

Located near Chawri Bazaar Metro Station, the museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 11 AM to 6 PM with free admission for all visitors.

A life-size marble statue of Mirza Ghalib stands in the museum, surrounded by walls inscribed with his poetry in traditional Urdu calligraphy.
