History
Dandi Kutir was conceptualized as a tribute to Mahatma Gandhi's historic Salt Satyagraha, also known as the Dandi March. This march, a non-violent protest against the British salt tax, was a pivotal moment in India's freedom struggle. The museum was built to commemorate this event and to educate future generations about Gandhi's life and philosophy. The foundation stone was laid in 2010, and the museum was opened to the public in 2015. The museum's design incorporates elements of traditional Indian architecture while utilizing modern technology to create a truly immersive and engaging experience for visitors. The museum’s exhibits are meticulously curated to tell the story of Gandhi’s life and the freedom struggle.
