FKM Legacy

Fakir Khana, known as “The House of The Humble Ones,” stands as one of the largest private museums in Pakistan, welcoming visitors since 1901.

Originally, the building belonged to Raja Todar Mal, the esteemed Finance Minister of Akbar’s court during the Mughal Empire. In the 20th century, it was meticulously renovated into a mansion, encapsulating nearly two centuries of the rich history and lives of some of the region’s most illustrious figures.

Family Lineage

The shajra of Fakir Khana , known as the “khandan-e-fuqra-e-Lahore,” intricately traces the lineage of this venerable family from Adam to the Holy Prophet (P.b.u.h.), and further to ‘Hazrat Jalal-uddin Hussain Makhdoom Jahanian Jahan Ghasht’ of Uch Sharif. The lineage continues to ‘Sayyed Hussain Pir Kamal’ of Chunia and finally to ‘Fakir Sayed Ghulam Mohi-Uddin Nausha-e-Sani’ of Lahore, the true patriarch of the Fakir Family. The genealogy culminates with Fakir Sayed Noor-uddin, his son, from whom the present descendants of Fakir Khana inherit their noble heritage.

A Tribute to Vision and Dedication: The Creation of Our E-Museum

In the heart of our family lies a treasure trove of history, culture, and timeless stories—The Fakir Khana Museum. This cherished institution was established by our revered ancestors, serving as a testament to their passion for preserving our heritage. Building on this legacy, my brother, Fakir Syed Iftikhar ud Din, has undertaken a groundbreaking project: the creation of the first e-museum of its kind in Pakistan.
