After his death the Birla House was converted into the Gandhi Smriti Museum. The Museum records the life of Gandhi especially his last moments. In the garden, are the last footsteps of the Mahatma, marked in red sandstone. A simple sandstone pillar marks the spot where the Mahatma breathed his last. The museum commemorates the philosophy of the Mahatma in its ambience and setting. The major events in Gandhi's life have been illustrated by using a series of terracotta dolls.
