Kunjali Marakkar Memorial Museum

Kunjali Marakkar Memorial Museum is situated at Kottakkal near Iringal and Payyoli in Kozhikode district, Keralam. Keralam Tourism identifies the museum with the historic Kunjali Marakkars, the naval commanders who served the Zamorin of Kozhikode and became central figures in Malabar's sixteenth-century maritime resistance against Portuguese expansion. The museum occupies a property associated with that history and helps place the story of the Marakkars within the coastal landscape where they operated.

Collections described by Keralam Tourism include a sword, cannon balls and other war-related relics from the Zamorin period. Although the museum is modest compared with a large state museum, its value lies in connecting objects, place and regional memory. Visitors interested in Keralam history, naval heritage and the Northern Malabar coast can combine the museum with Sargaalaya at Iringal, Payyoli Beach and Velliyamkallu.

The setting also gives context to the importance of Kottakkal and the coastal waterways in the Marakkars' era. Current opening hours and access arrangements should be checked locally or through official tourism information before a dedicated visit.
