RAMANEEYA MUSEUM - Museum in Shivakote, Muthagada Halli - Bengaluru Urban, India

Visited today after having searched for museums near home on Google. This is located at Shivakote on the route to Hessarghatta from Jalahalli. A short deviation from this road and you will come to Dr. Latha Tantry's house in the midst of agricultural fields, close to the Shivakote Panchayat Office. A Ph.D in English Literature, Dr. Latha has been assembling miniature models from kits and crafting others using paper and other materials as a passion. She also has a few antique items - a phonograph, a clock, a typewriter, a spool player, etc. All of which are displayed on the second floor of her home in a single room museum named Ramaneeya, in honour of her mentor Shri. K S Raman. She personally showed us around and the tales behind the exhibits were fascinating. She is also an active philatelist and numismatist, and a small portion of her stamp and coin collection is also exhibited at Ramaneeya. It takes about an hour to go through the small museum, and it was an hour well spent. The location shown on Google Maps is accurate - just that the approach road to her home is a mud road. Visitors could park on the tarred road and walk the short distance to Ramaneeya. Children and adults alike would find something to interest them here. Entry to the museum is not charged.
