The Musselburgh Museum is to open on 1st April 2011 at 65 High Street, Musselburgh. The work is nearing completion and is scheduled to be completed soon.
The museum has a specially designed, modern exhibition room showing the history of Musselburgh from its earliest days in Prehistoric times, through Roman settlement and medieval upheaval, to its fame as a thriving fishing harbour and valuable industrial site during World War II. Come and find out more! There will also be school visits and activities – visit this website for all the latest news and events.
Musselburgh Museum Committee was established as a small voluntary heritage group in 1985 to record, collect and preserve this proud history. As a Scottish registered charity (SC003967), the Committee’s goal was the establishment of a permanent museum in the town, now achieved.
