Moffat Museum

About Moffat Museum

A special building is dedicated to illustrating Dark Age life during the 5th and 6th centuries, one of the most dramatic and dynamic, yet least known periods of our history, when the elements which created Scotland were just beginning to emerge.

People have been coming to Annandale from the earliest of times – Stone Age hunters, Celtic tribes, Roman invaders, Norsemen, Normans and Saxon, all left their mark on the land and in the hills. A short journey unveils a little of what the past could tell us.
The Moffat Museum has an excellent display of key exhibits from different periods in Moffat’s heritage, featuring people who have figured in its history and illustrating the rise of Moffat as an important Spa town.
