Perth Art Gallery

One of Britain’s oldest museums. See the vast collections of silver, glass, art, human history, archaeology, geology and natural history.

This cultural and heritage attraction will highlight the many objects and stories that put Perth and Kinross at the heart of Scotland’s history.

In December 2020, First Minister and Keeper of the Great Seal of Scotland, Nicola Sturgeon announced the Stone of Destiny, one of Scotland’s most iconic objects, will become the centrepiece of the new museum.

To enable further work on the preservation and conservation of objects to be displayed in the new Perth Museum and work to redisplay the art collections in what will become Perth Art Gallery, all exhibition spaces at the current Perth Art Gallery (formally Perth Museum and Art Gallery) on George Street will be closed to the public from January to April 2023.

The current gift shop, coffee bar, lecture theatre and Messy Museum space will remain open with limited hours for customers and special events.
