The collection was meticulously gathered by successive rulers, showcasing their refined taste and passion for art. The museum officially opened to the public in the 1960s, offering a peek into the private world of the royal family. It stands as a testament to the Gaekwad dynasty's contribution to art and culture, preserving their legacy for future generations. The museum's collection is constantly being researched and expanded.
