Mahant Ghasidas Museum is an archaeological museum and among the ten oldest in India. The two-storey structure was built in 1875 by Ghasi Das and renovated in 1953, after the State had ceased to exist, by the former queen, Jyoti Devi, and her son, [[Digvijai Das]]. The new building of the museum was inaugurated by the first president of India, [[Rajendra Prasad]].<ref>{{Cite web|last1=Oct 5|first1=TNN /|last2=2020|last3=Ist|first3=13:46|title=In Mahant Ghasidas Museum, the inspiration of Gandhi's '3 Monkeys' {{!}} Raipur News - Times of India|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/raipur/in-mahant-ghasidas-museum-the-inspiration-of-gandhis-3-monkeys/articleshow/78489493.cms|access-date=2021-01-28|website=The Times of India|language=en}}</ref><br />
