Alampur Museum

The Alampur Museum is an archaeological museum in Alampur, India, that holds over 124 stone sculptures and 26 inscribed slabs across its main halls. The collection spans multiple centuries and demonstrates the artistic development of successive ruler dynasties in the region.

The museum was established in 1952 to preserve artworks created between the 6th and 16th centuries when different dynasties ruled this area. The sculptures reflect the artistic styles that emerged under the Kakatiyas, Chalukyas, and Vijayanagara rulers who succeeded one another.

The sculptures on display show gods and dancers from Hindu traditions that shaped how people lived in this region. Walking through the corridors, you notice how these carved figures reveal what local communities valued across different ages.

You can visit on any day of the week since the museum operates daily with low admission fees and allows photography throughout. Guided tours with local staff are available and help you understand the significance of the pieces and their context.

The museum displays large black stone sculptures from the 11th century that impress visitors with their detailed patterns and craftsmanship still visible today. These pieces represent a lesser-known chapter of Indian stone carving that demonstrates the technical skill of the Kakatiya period.
