The story

The Vallathol Museum is devoted to Vallathol Narayana Menon, the Malayalam poet who founded Kerala Kalamandalam. It occupies the house where he once lived, beside the Bharathapuzha river at Vallathol Nagar, Cheruthuruthi, in Thrissur district.

On display are his writings and other works, along with photographs from his lifetime and material on his cultural contributions and achievements, so that the poet's career can be followed in the house that was his home.
