Overview

Goa Chitra pays homage to the founder's ancestors and their traditional way of life, drawing upon centuries-old knowledge passed down through generations. This exceptional museum showcases a remarkable collection of farming tools and other ancient implements, all set against the backdrop of a traditional organic farm. Starting with a modest assemblage of 200 privately acquired items, the museum's holdings have since grown to encompass over 4,000 artifacts.
