Sevagram Ashram

Old name of village Sevagram was Shegaon. After leaving Sabarmati ashram, Mahatma Gandhi stayed a few days in Wardha City at Bunglow of Jamanalal Bajaj. Thereafter, this ashram was built by him for Gandhiji at outskirts of wardha. Gandhiji arrived here in 1936 and stayed till his death in 1948. It is a group of huts used by Gandhiji, his wife Kasturba and other disciples. The premise is very calming. All the things used by Gandhiji and others are preserved here including his spectacles, telephone, notebook, tables, and mats. There is an exhibition of life of Gandhiji. Sevagram Ashram was the birth place of the Non-Cooperation Movement against British Rule in India.
