Vivekananda House

Historic seaside landmark where Swami Vivekananda stayed, now a museum on his life and teachings.

Vivekananda House, also known as Ice House, is a significant historic landmark on Chennai's Marina Beach. Originally built in 1842 to store imported ice, it later became famous as the residence where Swami Vivekananda stayed in 1897. Today, it serves as a permanent exhibition center dedicated to his life and Indian culture. The distinct semi-circular Victorian architecture and serene meditation room make it a premier destination for those seeking spiritual inspiration and historical insight.
