Visiting & Contacting the Museum

The displays of Marischal Museum have been closed to the public since 2008. The University continues to care for the 80,000 items in this collection and several of them can be seen in King's Museum, Old Aberdeen, alongside objects from the University's six historic science collections.

Staff in the University Museums welcome enquiries about the University's museum collections and services. If you have any general enquiries or wish to make arrangements for a school class or other group, please contact King's Museum:
