Dharohar Museum, Cultural heritage museum in Kurukshetra University, India.
Dharohar Museum is a repository of regional objects located on the Kurukshetra University campus and displays artifacts from Haryana across multiple exhibition sections. The collection ranges from musical instruments and ornaments to farm equipment and shows the material culture of the region.
The museum was founded in 2006 to celebrate the 50-year milestone of Kurukshetra University. A second phase with additional exhibitions was added later to expand the collection.
The collection shows craftwork traditions from Haryana through musical instruments, ornaments, household items, and farming tools that reflect daily life in the region. Visitors can see how these objects were and are used in local culture.
The museum is located on the university grounds and is accessible to visitors who can explore the exhibitions from there. The best time to visit is in the morning when the spaces are less crowded and you can view the collections at a leisured pace.
The museum has an open-air hall where local folk dance and music performances happen regularly. These shows give visitors a living sense of how traditional art forms are practiced in the present day.
