The Gordon Highlanders Museum is situated in the fashionable west end of Aberdeen, Scotland, in the former home of leading Scottish artist Sir George Reid. The museum tells the 200-year story of the Gordon Highlanders regiment through a Nationally Significant Collection. Visitors can explore weaponry, medals, paintings, and more, guided by knowledgeable staff and volunteers. The museum also features Cognito at the Museum cafe, a gift shop, and a beautiful walled Victorian garden. School visits, venue hire, group tours, and private dining are available. This 5-star attraction offers a friendly welcome and is a great family day out.
