Located in the historic Bank of Scotland Head Office, this fascinating museum takes a fresh look at money – and much, much more. Art & design, technology, crime, trade and security – all feature in the story of money. We are open throughout the year and admission is FREE. We look forward to seeing you!

Strike It Lucky! returns 28th June - 17th August 2024, 14:30: - 16:00

Come along and strike your own replica medieval Scottish penny. We now have dies for four different kings, and will be using one die per week. Why not visit several times to make the set?
