About this place

Chulalongkorn University Museum, also called Chula Museum, was created for the university’s centenary. Its four floors combine changing art and cultural exhibitions with permanent displays about university knowledge, the physical development of the campus, and the university’s relationship with Thai society. The adjoining Art and Culture Courtyard is also used for cultural activities. Admission is free. The September 2026 university update lists Monday–Friday 09:00–17:00; the standing visitor page and map instead close at 16:30. Weekends and public holidays are closed. Confirm the closing time and current exhibitions before visiting. The museum is on the Phaya Thai Road campus. Call +66 2 218 3645 or +66 2 218 3646, or email chulamuseum@gmail.com, for visiting enquiries. This four-floor museum is distinct from the university’s separate Memorial Hall displays.
