It showcases a wide range of exhibits, including archaeological objects, coins, art objects, paintings, instruments, textiles, thankas, bronze images, and sculptures by Hindu and Buddhist artists.
The museum also has a rare collection of British-period paintings depicting day-to-day life and a fine collection related to the first President of India, Rajendra Prasad1. One of its most prized possessions was the Didarganj Yakshi statue, which has since been moved to the Bihar Museum.
