Each civilized country in the world has tried to preserve its heritage and the sources from which history of the nation is sketched upon in museums.

Keeping all these things in mind government of India in the year 1917 established Nalanda Archeological Museum at Nalanda.

Another sculpture shows Lord Buddha in earth touching posture at Nalanda Museum.
