★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Not well maintained, very few people visit although they are allowed to go without any extra charge. When I visited, in the whole museum area only 2-3 visitors were there.
At the end you can say it, a good place to visit for those who have genuine interest in history

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Red Fort or the Lal Qila houses the museum of Arms & Weapons. This enormous museum has a fine collection of Mughal weapons, medals, paintings, and dresses used in different wars such as the First World War. It has galleries showing us the weapons used during the war and also projects some of the war scenes, such as of the battle of Panipat. The Arms and Weapons Showcased in the Galleries include: arrows, swords, khukris, revolvers, machine guns, shells, daggers, small weapons, battle axes, chest armours etc. The last two galleries show the impact of European industrialization over the weapons, and communication since radars, telephone, telegraph, signal lamps, guns with periscope, trench periscope etc were introduced. While the Red Fort is all red stoned, the museum of arms and weapons is all white, containing all these ‘black’ weapons. One can visit the museum between 10am and 5pm. The museum remains closed on Fridays.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Red Fort Archaeological Museum is currently located in the Mumtaz Mahal of the Red Fort in Delhi, northern India. The museum contains paintings, artifacts, calligraphy, fabrics and other objects dating from the Mughal era.
The Red Fort Archaeology Museum is currently housed in the Mumtaz Mahal
HistoryEdit
Originally known as the Palace Museum, this museum dates back to 1911[1] when it was located in the Naubhat Khana. It was later moved to the Mumtaz Mahal,[2] originally used as a mess by the British occupiers. 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 colonialists. 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] The museum, therefore, is only able to show a very small fraction of Mughal property and heritage.
