Thirteen levelsof memory.
The Journey
Rise by lift. Descend through the story.

Levels
0 to 13
Visitors rise by lift from Level 0 to Level 13, then descend the inner ramp — a slow, continuous journey through the story of the first war of independence. The space works as an exhibition the visitor absorbs through art installations and imagery.
Contemporary and restrained, the interiors keep the content as the highlight throughout — images of the battles, the people and communities who took part, and maps of the campaigns of 1857.

Cities before, during and after the revolt.
Along the outer ramp, a panoramic rendering traces the cities of the region as they stood before the uprising, through the battles of 1857, and in its aftermath — the terrain rendered on either side of the campaign maps.
