glasgow Museums
Glasgow Museums is the largest local authority museums service in Britain with no less than thirteen museums and galleries. Glasgow Museums offer something for everyone; whether you want to find out more about an artist, come with your class to see how we used to live, view the latest in contemporary art or simply meet a friend for coffee, Glasgow has a museum for you!
Here is just a selection of goodies
Children and families just love our popular Museum Of Transport, Fossil Grove and People's Palace - a museum celebrating the people who have made the city what it is today.
For a more relaxing time, why not visit the Winter Gardens, St Mungo Museum of Religious Life and Art or Provand's Lordship - Glasgow's oldest house which dates back to medieval times?
If you are a fan of Charles Rennie Mackintosh, you can visit Martyr's School and Scotland Street School Museum to see how his work developed both as an architect and artist.
If you want to escape from the city centre, visit The Burrell Collection and Pollok House, both set in the peaceful surroundings of Pollok Country Park.
Our collections are available to everyone, and our newest museum, the Glasgow Museum Resource Centre is both a storage facility and a visitor centre, offering free tours round 200,000 objects not previously on display.
