Mussoorie Heritage Centre

Most people walk past the Clock Tower without noticing that the building beside it keeps the town's memory. Opened in November 2013, this small archive covers Mussoorie from 1814 to 1959 through vintage advertisements, prints, pocket watches, lamps and photographs, some of them for sale. It runs as a passion project (currently by Surbhi Agarwal), with part of the proceeds paying school fees for children who could not otherwise afford them. The centre also arranges the town's best-researched heritage walks, from the first permanent residence through Landour Bazaar to Picture Palace, plus bird walks; open roughly 10:00–18:00 daily.
