Glasgow Museums

Please scroll down for a list of Museums


Glasgow has a Museum to suit everyone, all free admission, it is a perfect, non-expensive day out for the whole family to enjoy and explore, or simply to relax and find out more about Glasgow's history on your own.

Whether you want to enjoy a trip on a tall ship, relax with a book in some stunning gardens, see some of your favourite architects work or take in a science show you will find your tastes are all catered for in one of Glasgow's many museums.

The museums are scattered all over the city and are very easy to reach whichever means of transportation you are using. You can find out what it was like for Glasgow school children in the sixties and seventies and step back in time at Scotland Street School, the building, designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh, is an intriguing experience to say the least.
