The Teen Murti Bhavan is a stunning, historic architecture situated in New Delhi, the Indian capital. This magnificent building was designed as part of the new capital city by British architect Robert Torr Russel in 1930, and served as the residence of the British Indian Army Commander-in-Chief. It was transformed after Independence into the Indian Prime Minister 's residence, which was Then Pt. Jawahar Lal Nehru. The Teen Murti Bhavan was his 16 year residence until his death in 1964, after which the house was turned into a museum dedicated to him. It is so named because of the statue of three soldiers which exists in the Bhavan premises.
Teen Murti Bhavan today houses numerous institutions such as the Nehru Memorial Museum and Library, as well as being an important national memorial. Some parts of the old office of Nehru were recreated in the museum using the same furniture and objects he used at the time, while the library has extensive information on India's modern history. Located within the walls of the Bhavan is the office of Jawaharlal Nehru Memorial Trust.
