About
The Highland Folk Museum gives visitors a flavour of how Highland people lived and worked from the 1700s up until the 1960s. They do this by displaying over 30 historical buildings and furnishing them appropriate to their time period. Some have been built from scratch on site and some have been moved there from other locations.
The site is a mile long with their 1700s township (featuring 6 houses) at one end through to their 1930s working croft at the other. They have an on site cafe, gift shop and a fantastic children’s playground. The museum is located at Newtonmore in the Scottish Highlands amidst some of the most beautiful scenery in the world.
The musuem is also home to ‘Am Fasgadh’ storing 10,000 artefacts plus high quality meeting rooms, a research library, conservation laboratory and a suite of offices.
