Dagshai Central Jail & Museum:
he Dagshai Jail Museum or Dagshai Central Jail in India was built in 1847, a T-shaped building of local stone masonry with 54 tiny cells. Apart from the Cellular Jail in the Andamans, it is the only other Indian museum which once was a jail. It is situated 6,087 feet (1,855 m) above sea level, 11 km (6.8 mi) from Solan, in Himachal Pradesh and maintained by the Engineering Wing of the Indian Army.[ The structure holds 54 maximum security cells, out of which 16 cells were used for severe punishments. The cells were hardly ventilated and there was no source of natural light. The details of each cell are mentioned on title boards.

The military prison in Dagshai Cantonment is a witness of Mahatma Gandhi's arrival in Himachal Pradesh. Britishers used to keep rogue soldiers in the prison. Mahatma Gandhi spent two days there, not as a prisoner but to meet the Irish prisoners. Gandhi's assassin Nathuram Godse was kept in the prison, he was believed to be the last prisoner of this jail.[6]

It housed 50 prisoners at most, and well after the independence of India it was converted into a museum.[7] The establishment of the museum in 2011 was due to the drive of Kasauli's brigade commander, Brigadier Ananth Narayanan. Anand Sethi, a resident of Dagshai Hills, helped him in the curation of the museum with vintage and archival photographs and other material sourced from India, the U.K. and Ireland.[1]

Dagshai Jail museum was inaugurated by Major General SK Gadeock on 13 October 2011.[8]
