Explore / United Kingdom / The Scottish Highlands

Inverness Museum and Art Gallery is a museum and gallery on Castle Wynd in the heart of Inverness by the castle. The collection and facilities are managed by High Life Highland on behalf of Highland Council.

The site has had a museum since the mid 1800’s with a major transformation in the 1960’s when The Castle Wynd/ Bridge Street area of Inverness was cleared for re-development.

The exhibitions include geology and natural history of the Highlands, Jacobite memorabilia, Inverness silverware, authentic Highland weapons and bagpipes.

The Art Gallery includes local fine art and craft exhibitions, with a variety of changing featured artists.

The museum has a programme of talks, workshops, recitals as well as activities for children.
