關於
Perth Museum is the principal museum in the city of Perth in central Scotland.
Opening in 2024 in the former Perth City Hall building, the museum took on a number of exhibits from the former Perth Museum and Art Gallery. It also provides a permanent exhibition space for the Stone of Scone, the United Kingdom's coronation stone, which originated nearby in the Perthshire village of Scone – the ancient crowning place of the monarchs of Scotland.
The museum aims to showcase the city's collections as well as recognising Perth's status as a former capital of the Kingdom of Scotland.
The museum's building is located adjacent to the historic St John's Kirk, facing onto King Edward Street and accessed from St John's Place. Opened in 1914 the City Hall provided an events space, before being closed in 2005 with the construction of the Perth Concert Hall.
