Anand Bhavan Museum
Anand Bhavan was donated to the Indian government in the year 1970 by the president of India - Indira Gandhi, and it was then transformed into a museum as a tribute to the Nehru family. The museum showcases the memorabilia of the Nehru family, with a lot of the personal items that were used by Pandit Nehru during his stay here. There are also a lot of photos from the meetings of the Indian National Congress, and from the meetings of conspirators who used to gather here to plan their activities against the British rule. You can also find various books and historical records that were written and used by Pandit Nehru during the independence movement of India.
Nehru Planetarium
Anand Bhavan is not only a historic museum but also has a science planetarium planted inside the premises of the mansion. The planetarium was built in 1975 and is managed by Jawaharlal Nehru Memorial Fund. It was built to inculcate an interest in science among the school kids of the city - and you would often see long queues of school children coming here. The planetarium is surrounded by the lush green gardens. Each year the prestigious Jawaharlal Nehru Lecture is held at the planetarium on 14 November, his birth anniversary.
