 Haveli
Museum is situated at Bagore-ki-Haveli at "Gangaur Ghat" by the side
of Lake Pichhola barely 100 meters from the City Palace & Jagdish
Temple at Udaipur. In view of the historical importance of "Bagore-ki-Haveli",
it was decided to restore and renovate the building in 1992 and set
up a museum to preserve its old architectural style, its pristine
glory and historical past. The idea behind the museum is to
symbolically invoke the spirit of the Mewar's aristocratic culture
by displaying a few selected objects like jewellery boxes, dice-games,hukkas,
pan boxes, nut crackers,hand fans, rose water sprinklers, copper
vessels and other household objects of everyday life of the by-gone
culture.
After spending Rs.75 Lakhs over a period of 5 years, the haveli was
restored by using local traditional material and skills. Experts and
members of Royal family were consulted to give each room a glimpse
of the royal past. Several mural paintings(frescos) done in 18th &
19th century were uncoverd beneath many layers of whitewash during
restoration. The doors, windows and perforated screens were repaired
and restored to their original form. The museum displays the private
chambers of royal ladies, their dressing rooms, bath rooms, living
rooms, bed rooms, worship rooms and recreation rooms. The Haveli
museum consciously attempts to re-interpret architecture, life style
and the cultural ethos of the past days from the vantage point of
the present.
