The museum has come up at the building on the Barabati Fort premises which was the residence of the chief justice of Orissa High Court from 1948 to August 2012. The museum exhibits include a high-back ornate wooden chair and a revolving wooden bookshelf used in Cuttack judgeship in the pre-Independence era, calculators, locks and table lamps made in London and antique wall clocks used by the court about seven decades ago.
