The Museum of Scotland presents for the first time the history of Scotland - its land, its people and their achievements - through the rich national collections. The stunning series of galleries take you from Scotland's geological beginnings through time to the Twentieth Century.
The museum building is a striking new landmark in Edinburgh's historic Old Town designed by Benson + Forsyth, winners of the architectural competition to design the new Museum of Scotland. See the Castle, the Scott Monument and even the Pentland Hills from the great views at the top of the building.
The interior will convey to visitors a great feeling of light and space. Structural form, light, and the choice of finishes will create interior spaces in a subtle interaction with the themes and contents of the galleries.
