Located right inside the sprawling Kerala Legislative Assembly Complex is a huge edifice which is a repository of the legislative history of Kerala- the Kerala Legislative Assembly Museum. With a vast array of photos and artifacts, the museum traces the journey of the Kerala Legislative Assembly. The museum also houses a model of the Assembly Hall, a mini theatre, library, research centre, multimedia hall and so forth.

The building was, in fact, the headquarters of the Travancore Nair Brigade in 1868 and was later used as a military hospital. Later on, it was converted into the Legislative Assembly Museum which was inaugurated on May 5, 2006. The museum gets a constant stream of visitors with researchers and school students arriving to learn about the history of the Kerala Assembly. On April 15, 2013, another building was added.
