The Visakha Museum is a treasure trove of regional heritage, housed in a colonial-era building. Its galleries feature archaeological finds, traditional costumes, weapons, coins, and maritime artifacts that tell the story of Vizag's evolution as a port city. Highlights include a model of the INS Kursura, ancient sculptures, and a collection of photographs depicting old Vizag. The museum provides context for the city's rich past, from the Kalinga dynasty to British rule and beyond.
