Rabindranath Tagore wrote many of his well-known poems and writings while residing in Shantiniketan for a significant portion of his life. His father, Maharshi Devendranath Tagore, had constructed Tagore's ashram in 1863, which is now a heritage site. According to history, the ashram was used for spreading the Brahmo Dharma. Also dubbed the Rabindra Bhavan Museum, constructed in 1961, the museum features an extensive collection of his original artwork, including paintings, writings, photographs, and certificates, which provide a more in-depth look into his life.
His Nobel Prize medallion was also on display here until it was taken a few years ago. Even with the tragedy, his creative energy continues to pulsate through the museum, leaving a legacy that is impossible to ignore.
