Do you love history and architecture? If so, make sure to visit the famous Kelvin Hall in Glasgow’s West End! This fantastic building has been home to some of the city’s important events and exhibitions, since its opening in 1927. A previous Kelvin Hall building was sadly destroyed by fire in 1925. The building is now mixed-use, with museums, tours and sports facilities, being an event at the Commonwealth Games, and part of the Museum of Transport and Travel until 2010.

These collections include the Glasgow Museum, The University of Glasgow, and the National Library of Scotland. So what are you waiting for?
