The Ethnological Museum of Chittagong (Bengali: জাতিতাত্ত্বিক জাদুঘর) is the only ethnological museum in Bangladesh. Located in Agrabad, Chittagong,[2] it contains displays featuring the history of Bangladesh's tribal people.[1][3]
The museum was established in 1965 and opened to the public in 1974.[1] Two rooms were added to the museum during 1985–1995. In 1996, a gallery with folk articles of Bengali-speaking people was added.
