The Punjab Agricultural University (PAU) Museum in Ludhiana, Punjab, India is a notable institution dedicated to preserving and showcasing the rich agricultural heritage of Punjab. Established under the leadership of Dr. H.L. Uppal, this museum highlights the contributions of the Punjab Agricultural University to agricultural research, education, and development.

This Museum focuses on the physiographical features of northwestern India. It presents these features through both outdoor and indoor models.

Constructed from a cement-concrete mixture, this model depicts the hilly tracts of the Himalayas and the courses of important rivers like the Ravi, Beas, and Sutlej.

On a smaller scale (1:100,000), this model covers approximately 760,000 sq. km. It represents several states of northwestern India, including Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir, Uttarakhand, and parts of Rajasthan and Western Uttar Pradesh. Different colors mark the heights of physical features using enamel paints.

The museum's purpose is to demonstrate the physiographical diversity and available land and water resources of North West India, aiding students, researchers, and planners in understanding their potential and limitations.

Located within the Department of Soils, the Soils Museum is unique in Northern India. It provides detailed information about the soil resources of Punjab State based on extensive research conducted by the department.

The PAU Museum serves as a bridge between the past and the present, offering insights into traditional Punjab's agricultural practices and challenges.

Inspired by an open-air museum in Copenhagen, this self-explanatory museum replicates the socio-economic and religious life of ancient Punjab during the 18th century.
