About the Ashram
The Sabarmati Ashram (also known as Harijan Ashram) was home to Mohandas Gandhi and Kasturba from 1917 until 1930.
It served as one of the main centres of the Indian freedom struggle.
Originally called the Satyagraha Ashram, reflecting the movement toward passive resistance launched by the Mahatma, the Ashram became home to the ideology that set India free.
Sabarmati Ashram named for the river on which it sits, was created with a dual mission.
On the 12 March 1930, Gandhi launched the famous Dandi march 241 miles from the Ashram in protest of the British Salt Law.
