Partition Museum, Museum of historical migration in Amritsar, India.
The Partition Museum occupies the former British headquarters building, featuring fourteen galleries that document the division of British India through artifacts and photographs.
During the 1947 partition, over fourteen million people crossed borders while more than 800,000 individuals lost their lives in subsequent conflicts.
The museum preserves oral histories, documents, and personal accounts from first-generation survivors who experienced the division between India and Pakistan.
Located near the Golden Temple and Jallianwala Bagh, the museum contains interactive digital displays and maintains complete wheelchair accessibility.
Visitors can contribute their family stories to the museum archives, creating an expanding collection of personal narratives about the partition experience.
