This center gives you the basic fundamentals and the detailed layout plans of development of Chandigarh city. You can understand the basic planning and the way city was envisaged and its subsequent development. The whole visit is time consuming and fascinating for people who love architecture and urban development.

Le Corbusier centre is a must visit when in Chandigarh purely because you will WANT to know the story behind the making of this amazing city!!
My first visit to Chandigarh and I was bowled over by this city!! Everything looks and seems planned and organized. The city has an amazing green cover and apparently third largest in India after Lakshwadeep and Goa..
The Le Corbusier centre is more than a tribute to the Master Architect who designed the layout of this city in the late 1950's. It is a testament of sheer determination of people who worked to create a brand new city after India's independence.
The exhibition centre has amazing and original documents/ designs/ samples/ furniture/ correspondence/ layouts of the time the city was planned and constructed.
Do not miss this place at any cost and take out a good hour or an hour and a half to enjoy here.
The centre is in Sector 19A in Chandigarh...

We were led to believe that this was going to be an Architecturally wonderful city with big bold magnificent buildings, well if this is the best Le Corbusier could do then I would not have hired him to design my garden shed. The buildings are drab and uninspiring and should have ben demolished long ago.
Don’t waste valuable holiday time.

Not many people know of the Corbusier Centre which is shaping up to be a first stop for Corbusier lovers from all over the world. One gets the flavour of the inception of Chandigarh and Corbusier's early inputs.

Amazing to see how the city was created by someone who had many special buildings and design ideas. Feels like you can smell the same air like what Le Corbusier took decades ago.

Date of Visit: 30th Mar 2013
Fees: None
This place is hard to find - my hotel car driver and the autorickshaw drivers did not know this place. I have thus added a photo of the map of Sector 19B which you can zoom in to find it (it is on the side facing Sector 7).
+ points:
(1) Having read quite a bit about Le Corbusier in the Chandigarh Architecture Museum (which is in the same compound as the Government Museum and Art Gallery), I was curious to know more and this place provided a lot of good information that complemented what I had learnt earlier.
(2) For those who didn't get the opportunity to see the buildings of the Capitol Complex (I managed to see the actual buildings but that's another story), this place has excellent photos of them that showcases their development.
- point:
(1) Only for those really curious about Le Corbusier because otherwise it is quite boring.
(2) The place is a bit out of the way and difficult to find. It is also quite small so don't need to go all out to get there.

A great little museum that houses many interesting photos, paintings and documents concerning the early development and philosophy behind the design of Chandigarh. A really useful introduction to the city.

If you are interested in architecture and city- design, than Chandigarh is one of the most interesting cities in the world to visit. Built as the new capital of Indian Punjab after partition, the city-plan was designed by Le Corbusier, as are some of the most prestigious buildings. This small museum, in the first building that was build, as housing for the offices for his team, give a good idea about the enormous task, and the ideas behind the plan.

Those interested in a modern city built in the f ifties by a world reknowned architect should visit this small but highly informative museum. Its director is more of a scientist than a guide, yet we found the exhibits fascinating. The museum not only shows plans and manuscripts of Le Corbusier but also some of his famous piece of furniture art.
