Glasgow's Leading Attractions

The City of Glasgow owns one of the richest collections in Europe, displayed in 8* museums and galleries across the city.

From paintings by Degas and Cezanne to Sir Roger the Elephant, Charles Rennie Mackintosh furniture to a real Spitfire, fabulous arms and armour to cutting edge contemporary art, we’ve got objects and exhibits to fire your imagination.

Admission to our museums is free and most have a café where you can relax and enjoy a coffee or lunch during your visit. Children are particularly welcome at Glasgow Museums - most of our exhibitions have events programmes especially for them, and our Learning and Access team run activities and workshops during the school holidays too.

There are exciting programmes of exhibitions and events throughout the year at all of our museums, so come along and be inspired!
