Arakkal Museum

Housed in part of the royal palace of the Arakkal family, a powerful Kannur dynasty with its roots dating to the 12th century, this harbourfront museum features antiques, furniture, weapons, silver and portraits, between tiled roofs, white walls and shuttered windows. It's a fascinating look into the life of Kerala's only Muslim royal family.
