Le Corbusier's Masterpieces

Explore the architectural legacy of Chandigarh, the first planned city in post-independence India designed by modernist pioneer Le Corbusier. This collection features the core components of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Capitol Complex: the massive Secretariat, the High Court with its innovative sun-shades, and the Palace of Assembly. Complementing these monumental structures is the 26-meter-high Open Hand Monument, a rotating symbol of peace. The list also includes the Government Museum and Art Gallery, which showcases Le Corbusier’s modular design and climate-responsive architecture.
