Our Museum and Garden is located in the oldest settlement of St Andrews and is one of the earliest domestic dwellings in the area.

Focusing on the story of the Town and its people from circa 1800, our Museum and Garden is unique. Our displays showcase social, working and domestic life in St Andrews through fascinating objects that have been gifted by the public and Trust members for over 60 years. Our Garden is a hidden gem and, as well as a sensory garden and a variety of plants, visitors can enjoy exhibitions and installations throughout.

Exploring our Museum and Garden is free during normal opening hours. Our dedicated and enthusiastic museum guides look forward to meeting you and sharing the rich heritage of St Andrews and its people.
