A must.
Well laid out, easy to navigate and so much to learn. Very informative. Information boards are in English too. Cheap entrance fee. Clean. You need maybe an hour to an hour and a half at the most.

Must Visit...
This place will definitely make you feel the real pain of partition, since you may easily relate and visualize the real condition of that time. A must visit place.

We have a feeling that this museum only shows the hardship partition brought on and does not focuse too much of what a bad idea partition itself was. Merely our thoughts.

Incredible journey into history
The museum is simply a wonder. It is as well made as many European museums. The displays are very well categorised and documented. India's partition history can be told in no better way. It's commendable that the upkeep of the place is so good. This is a place one must never miss in Amritsar. More museums should become like this. Well done!

Humbling, heartbreaking lessons about our past
A very well thought out collection telling the story of India’s struggle for independence and the brutal savagery of partition. Over 2 floors - need longer than the hour suggested on the website as I went about 4:45pm and they were then closing at 6pm around me. Historical artefacts coupled with videos of personal, tragic stories of desperation. The artefacts are well kept - first floor about the struggle for independence and then the 2nd floor about partition itself and it’s human impact is just so emotional- hearing and reading the stories of families, communities ripped apart, the journeys families made to cross new terrains, the terrible atrocities against women of that time. Just really profound. Only improvement I would suggest is to ensure the layout is more logical between rooms to follow the chronological events. Also not all videos were working.
