Glorious museum
The interiors of the museum were wonderful, making it seem like a palace. The curios consisted of ancient Jain scriptures, manuscripts, belongings of the Jain Tirthankaras and King Harshavardhana.

Bhagavan mahavir
 In the Jain tradition, it is believed that Mahavira was born in the early part of the 6th century BC into a royal family in what is now bihar, India. At the age of thirty, abandoning all worldly possessions, he left his home in pursuit of spiritual awakening and became an ascetic. For the next twelve and a half years, Mahavira practiced intense meditation and severe austerities, after which he is believed to have attained kevala jnana (omniscience). He preached for thirty years, and is believed by Jains to have died in the 6th century BC. Scholars such as Karl potter consider his biographical details as uncertain, with some suggesting he lived in the 5th century BC contemporaneously with the budha. Mahavira died at the age of 72 in pawapuri(now Bihar), and his remains were cremated. According to the Jain tradition, Mahavira had 14,000 muni (male ascetic) 36,000 aryik (nuns), 159,000 sravakas(laymen), and 318,000 sravikas (laywomen) as his followers. Some of the royal followers included Srenika (popularly known as Bimbisara) of Magadha, Kunika of Anga(Ajatasatruvu), and Chetaka of Videha

Temple of jains
Bhagvan Mahavir Government Museum was set up by the government of the state to preserve the sculptures and artefacts of historical significance. The museum was established in 1982 with the assistance of a Jain businessman. The site possesses icons and structures made from limestone and granite which bear inscriptions belonging to the ancient period. The structures present in the museum were found during the excavation in Cuddapah and the adjoining areas. The idols of Lord Ganesha, Lord Hanuman, Lord Vishnu and Lord Shiva are among the excavated idols that date back to the period between the 5th and the 18th century. Apart from the idols, coins belonging to the period of the Vishnukundins, Qutub Shahis, Satavahanas, Bahmanis, Mughals and the Ikshawakus are also displayed in the museum. Travellers can also find paintings and weapons such as knives and sword of the ancient period.

the artefacts displayed in the museum are very old and mostly in poor condition. require a lot of restoration techniques as it is a matter of history.
