We look forward to welcoming you to the National War Museum of Scotland.

We care for collections of national and international importance, preserving, interpreting and opening access to them for current and future generations. Our aim is that your visit allows a broader audience to enjoy our collections and museum.

We ask that you read this beforehand and share with all adults accompanying you.
