The Red Fort Archaeology Museum is currently housed in the Mumtaz Mahal
The Red Fort Archaeological Museum is currently located in the Mumtaz Mahal Red Fort in Delhi , northern India . The museum contains paintings, artifacts, calligraphy, fabrics and other objects dating from the Mughal era .
History
[ edit ]
Originally known as the Palace Museum , this museum dates back to 1911[1] Naubhat Khana Mumtaz Mahal ,[2] mess by British troops. The museum is now under the aegis of the Archaeological Survey of India .
Most of the Mughal belongings and jewels of the Red Fort were looted and stolen during Nadir Shah's invasion of India in 1747 and again after the failed Indian Rebellion of 1857 against the British. They were eventually sold to private collectors or the British Museum , British Library and the Victoria and Albert Museum . For example, the Koh-i-Noor diamond, the jade wine cup of Shah Jahan and the crown of Bahadur Shah II are all currently located in London. Various requests for restitution have been rejected by the British government.[3] [4]
