Our collections represent astonishing diversity, from fossils showing evidence of the earliest forms of life, to the rich artefact collections representing other world cultures. Material evidence of Scottish history and culture from the earliest times to the present day has been collected and preserved for the future. Each curatorial department takes responsibility for a particular area.
We have an online collections database to browse and explore as well as a number of objects from our collection we have highlighted.
