Srikrishna Museum Overview
The museum was founded in 1987 and inaugurated by Sri R. Venkataraman, the then president of India. In February 2012, President Ms Pratibha Patil opened two new blocks that house the Gita Gallery and Multimedia Mahabharata. The museum is dedicated to the Hindu deity Lord Vishnu’s Krishna avatar, where his several incarnations as described in the Mahabharata and Bhagavata Purana are depicted through paintings, sculptures, manuscripts, antique relics and other objects.

Intricately carved wood panels, exquisite bronze castings, delicate works on ivory, ancient etchings on palm-leaves or Tala Patra, stunning sculptures in stone, and miniature paintings are also on display. A stunning tableau built out of clay and paper-mâché is on show in this interesting attraction, making it among the places to visit in Kurukshetra.
