The Darwan Singh Museum is a landmark in the history of the Indian Army. Locally known as the Garhwali Museum, the museum houses war memoirs ranging from antiques and weapons to badges, among other things. Named after Darwan Singh Negi, an army man posted at the Garhwal Regiment, the museum inaugurated in 1983. The museum offers an exceptional depiction of the events of past and the bravery of the warriors of the Garhwal Regiment. The most attractive part of this place is the very rare Garhwali rifle collection preserved here. Guns, cannons, and other arms and ammunitions also dot this military museum, which is nicely maintained and well presented. As you hear the valiant stories of the illustrious history of this regiment and the never ending honor rolls, you are bound to feel overwhelmed.
