This museum offers information about the history, culture and architecture of the Sikhs in the 18th and 19th centuries. Once the summer palace of Maharaja Ranjit Singh, the first king of the Sikh empire, it is located in the middle of Amritsar’s well-known Ram Bagh Garden, just 4 km from the Golden Temple. The palace was converted into a museum in 1977. The museum houses many relics from the maharaja's court. These include paintings, miniatures, coins, arms and armour. Near the museum lies the Maharaja Ranjit Singh Panorama, a permanent visual documentation of the maharaja’s life. The panorama is housed in a two-storeyed circular building that boasts magnificent paintings, depicting six of his major battles. One can also find life-size paintings and dioramas (three-dimensional scenes) from the maharaja's early life.
