In a beautiful red colonial-era building dating from 1877, you’ll find a dusty collection of 12th-century stone carvings and artefacts excavated from Halebid, Hampi and Attriampakham. Your ticket also gets you into the Venkatappa Art Gallery next door, where you can see works and personal memorabilia of K Venkatappa (1887–1962), court painter to the Wodeyars.
