The museum contains a large variety of artefacts mainly collected
locally, of interest to anyone curious about how Glencoe’s people
lived in the past. Treasures range from weapons found in the
thatched roofs of local houses (where they lay concealed for more
than 200 years after the battle of Culloden), to Victorian dolls which
have retained the charm of that period.
Spend as long as you like browsing through our archives. Whether
you are young or old, there is something to interest anyone keen to
learn about history.
