Arakkal Museum

Museum in the Arakkal Kettu palace on Kerala's only Muslim royal family.

Arakkal Museum occupies the former durbar hall of Arakkal Kettu in Ayikkara, the palace complex of Kerala's only Muslim royal family. Displays cover Arakkal dynasty history, trade links, and everyday palace life along the Malabar coast. The setting near Mappila Bay makes it an easy add-on to St. Angelo Fort. Allow about an hour, then continue to Payyambalam or the lighthouse for sea views.
