    Linlithgow Museum offers visitors an informative journey through the rich history of Linlithgow and its surroundings. Located in the heart of the town, this small but well-curated museum provides an overview of local heritage, from prehistoric times to the present day. The exhibits showcase artifacts, photographs, and interactive displays that highlight the town's royal connections, industrial past, and cultural significance.

    Visitors appreciate the museum's compact size, which allows for a thorough exploration in about an hour.
