THE HINDU

“It is a major achievement that after 70 years we have a Site Museum for a World Heritage Site. It’s a concept that is seen all over the world, but rarely in India. The museum is a reminder of our plurality, our inclusivity. These are valuable points for conversation.”
INDIA TODAY

A museum worthy of the World Heritage stature of Humayun’s Tomb is finally open at the site. With over 500 artefacts—including miniatures, coins, jewellery, weaponry, astrolabes and celestial spheres, tiles, textiles, and much more—it seems quite the embarrassment of riches.

“Sunder Nursery now homes Humayun’s Tomb World Heritage Site Museum... As one descends into the gallery blocks through stone ramps, 40-foot wide 3D illustrations and finely crafted architectural models highlight several World Heritage monuments built here along the river Yamuna.”
HINDUSTAN TIMES

“On stepping inside the museum, visitors are transported into the world of Humayun’s Tomb — from the 16th century, when the monument was built, to the later centuries whose narrative the Tomb helped shape, and right up to this modern age.”
William Dalrymple

Historian & Writer

Totally dazzled by the new Humayun's Tomb Museum- its not just the best designed, best displayed and best lit museum in Delhi, its probably the best new museum in the entire country. This is the great museum celebrating the richness of Delhi's art, architecture and civilisation which this city so deserves.
