The Gujari Mahal Archeological Museum or State Archaeological Museum, sometimes called the "Gwalior Fort Museum", is a state museum in Gwalior, located in the fortress of Gujari Mahal.[1] It displays the love between a Rajput ruler and his Gurjar concubine. [2]

The palace of Gujari Mahal was built by Tomar Rajput ruler Man Singh Tomar for his concubine Mrignayani who belonged to Goojar Gurjar caste. The palace has been converted into an archaeological museum. Rare artifacts at the museum include Hindu and Jain sculptures dated to the 1st and 2nd centuries BCE, miniature statue of Salabhanjika, terracotta items and replicas of frescoes seen in the Bagh Caves.
