The Indo-Portuguese Museum, which is situated at Fort Kochi in Cochin, is one of the important museums of Kerala. The museum is an example of the Portuguese influence in both the art and the architecture of Kerala in general and Cochin in particular. The Indo-Portuguese Museum tells the story of the era when Portuguese used to have a strong influence in this area, at all levels. Be it art or the architecture of the region, this is the primary reason behind the variety in the designs of the buildings and monuments. The Indo Portuguese Museum holds an important place in the history of Kochi. It is very popular, because it was the first museum in Kerala that especially stored artifacts and scriptures of theological importance.
