Mirza Ghalib Museum

Mirza Ghalib Museum, Literary museum near Nizamuddin complex, New Delhi, India

Mirza Ghalib Museum sits next to the Nizamuddin complex and displays manuscripts, letters, personal items, and coins from the Mughal period. The exhibition spreads across several floors and offers a view into the life and legacy of this important poet.

The museum opened in 1969 as a response to growing recognition of this 19th-century poet's literary importance. It has since become an important center for documenting Urdu literature and the era in which he lived.

This space honors one of Urdu literature's greatest poets and attracts visitors drawn to poetry and personal stories. The rooms reveal how this artist lived and what objects held meaning for him.

Access is straightforward since the museum sits near two metro stations and can be reached from different parts of the city. Visitors should check opening hours on weekdays, as the museum may be closed on weekends.

The collection holds photographs that reveal everyday aspects of the poet's life, such as his food preferences and clothing styles. Additionally, the museum displays commemorative stamps from two countries, showing his influence across borders.
