Dharohar in Hindi means heritage. This museum was set up by Kurukshetra University inside the university campus, in its golden jubilee year, to showcase the matchless cultural, architectural and archaeological heritage of Haryana. It truly makes a visitor feel in a typical Haryanvi village through its dioramas and other exhibits that one would literally like to live there for a couple of days. One of its galleries is a big open mud kitchen with containers, plates & glasses made of brass, mud pots to keep curd and water, cylindrical ceramic pots for pickle, cane baskets for chapattis, kerosene lantern and a woman cooking food on traditional chulha with cow-dung cakes as fuel. In other galleries, Haryanvi costumes and jewellery, handicrafts, toys, storage containers made of brass and copper, farming tools, wooden carts, musical instruments, to name a few, are exhibited. One gallery is dedicated to Indian army and showcases the pictures of martyrs. Towards the end of the museum, there is a beautifully constructed village where one can cannot stop posing with dioramas. There is a deep well in the centre where village women fill water and walk by placing pots on their heads. A man playing a wooden musical instrument under a peepal tree is a sight that is rare in today’s modern times. Shops of tailors, barbers, blacksmiths, potters, weavers, bangle sellers, and sacred Hindu ceremonies such has yagya are also exhibited. This beautiful museum gives some inspiration to every visitor to keep their culture alive.
