District Museum

Eight hundred metres past the railway bridge on the Sagar road in Vidisha, the District Museum houses some beautiful sculptures recovered from local sites, the most impressive of which is a 3m-high, 2nd-century-BC stone statue of Kuber Yaksha (treasurer of the gods), on display as you enter. Sadly, as is so often the case with small town, government-run museums in India, maintenance is minimal.
