Magan Sangrahalaya located in Maganwadi, Wardha was inaugurated by Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi himself in 1938. “How man cultivated his hands towards different art techniques and how he used it to progress his habitat and lifestyle” is what is very well exhibited in Magan Sangrahalaya. Some of the unique techniques and technologies that originated in India that include cloth making, stone carving, irrigation technologies, medicine, brass and copper articles, the evolution of Indian flag, have been exhibited there.
