Walk Through Gandhi’s Mumbai Legacy at Mani Bhavan
Discover Peace & Freedom: Visit Mani Bhavan Gandhi Museum – Gandhi’s Mumbai Residence
Located in the quiet Gamdevi neighborhood of South Mumbai, Mani Bhavan Gandhi Sangrahalaya served as Mahatma Gandhi’s official residence and Mumbai headquarters from 1917 to 1934. This two-story heritage building witnessed pivotal moments in India’s freedom struggle—from the launch of the Non-Cooperation, Khadi, and Swadeshi movements to Gandhi’s historic fasts. Visitors can explore the very room Gandhi used, preserved intact with his charpoy, spinning wheels, and personal artifacts that reflect his simple lifestyle and powerful ideology.
Today, Mani Bhavan functions as a museum, research library, and cultural learning center. The ground floor hosts a library with over 40,000 books, a photo gallery, miniature dioramas, and an auditorium showcasing films and audio recordings related to Gandhi’s life. The staircase is lined with powerful historic images, and the terrace features a plaque marking Gandhi’s arrest in 1932. A must-visit for history lovers, students, and peace seekers, Mani Bhavan offers a tranquil, insightful journey through the values and legacy of Mahatma Gandhi.
