Preserving heritage, inspiring innovation
At the core of the Heritage Transport Museum is the passionate desire to preserve India's transport heritage and to create a new level of awareness about its cultural importance. The museum aims to achieve this through educational programs, outreach initiatives, and community engagement, of which the future generations will have an appreciation for the ingenuity, craftsmanship and human stories behind each vehicle and artefact. Learning special events, workshops, and lectures provide the visitors the opportunity to get involved in topics like automotive design, industrial history, and sustainable transportation, which encourages the interest and curiosity of people of all ages in the subject matters.
