Great place for science and technology lovers. Especially very useful for school students. Basic science fundamentals are explained very well where anyone can have hands-on experience.

Victim of ignorance A verh innovative place, have to modify and develop for encourage to adopt practical science

Originally was a jail in pre independence era known as Hijli Concentration Camp, was converted as the first IIT of India in 1950. Now converted to a museum, topics ranging from various fields of interest. Must watch a short flim on the history of the jail. Also will see an original fighter plane of Indian airforce and a steam locomotive engine.

It was a nice science Museum with so many Practical Test samples. No ticket charge.... Its all free here. Maintained well

Awesome science museum...good for students to experience basic to advance science matters practically.

It is one of the best museum according to my opinion. It contains good science related things and anyone can gain practical knowledge by the materials here. It is situated inside the IIT Kharagpur campus and at the old building near the last end of the academic campus. you will get some important and good experimental set ups of basic things in science. The museum is very well organized. There is Hijli jail near this museum. there are two sessions in the morning and evening session during which the museum remains open.

Learn more about physics....Learn physics with fun....Lots of historical things like old trains model, pirate's ships model etc. U also enjoy there.

Excellent Science, Mathematics and Technology displayed for all and especially for school students. Also very nicely organised. Explains engineering and science very well with various models. Must visit for science and engineering lovers.
