Coconut Museum

Like others said, it’s more of a small coconut store than museum. Good place to buy local organic coconut products. We stopped by on the way from Organic Farms Cafe. Good to visit both places together.

It's good.. the staffs are nice, great crafts, the staffs did some explaining about the crafts too..

Well organized place to be informed on coconuts and coconut trees. Displays skills of coconut carvings and health of trees. Request the authorities to focus their attention on the seller of coconut products shop in their vicinity. Customers are being handled negligently with a careless attitude and the person was busy watching videos on his mobile which made the experience quite frustrating, as we were hoping to purchase a few products post visit to the museum.

Coconut Museum is located inside the compound of the national headquarters of the Coconut Development Board in Kochi. The museum was inaugurated by Sharad Pawar in 2009 when he was the union minister for agriculture. The museum displays an array of artefacts and products produced from various materials of coconut. It mainly provides a platform for exhibition of handicrafts by coconut artisans. The museum also holds objects such as oil paintings and some posters which provide visitors detailed information on coconut farming and its uses, apart from a model of Taj Mahal, Kathakali and tiger faces and some working models.

The Museum is not known to the locals, so it is difficult to locate. Ask for Coconut Development Board Office instead. The Museum remains locked you have to ask the officials to open it. It is a small museum housing handicrafts item made from coconut fibres and Kernel.

Coconut Museum is located at the Coconut Board compound, Ernakulam South. This museum was inaugurated in 2009. It has a wide range of products made out of various parts of a coconut tree. Models includes Taj Mahal, Hindu and Buddhist idols and Kathakali portraits. Siva, Budha and Ganesha idols are carved out from a single log of coconut tree. The working hours: Monday to Friday From 9.30 am to 5 pm

It's a fairly small place, the size of a large room, and stocked with interesting hand-carved stuff made from coconut amd coconut fibre. There's a weird portrait of Gandhi made from coconut fibre. And a badly made Taj Mahal model with thermocol poking out in places. There's also some technical information on coconut cultivation and stuff in the country, it's not particularly interesting, in the sense that there really isn't a story being told there. Decent place worth checking out for the Malalyali coconut stereotype in of itself.

The display could have been arranged in a much more aesthetic manner. If was great art very poorly arranged. And marketing of the products is also poor.

The Coconut Museum was closed for repairs when we visited 18/12/2024. Check before going.

The Coconut Museum has been set up by the Coconut Board, a Govt. of India organisation, in Cochin. Interesting.
