Gordon Highlanders Museum
Gordon Highlanders Museum, Regimental museum in Aberdeen, Scotland.
The Gordon Highlanders Museum displays military artifacts, medals, uniforms, and weapons across multiple galleries in a restored 19th-century residence.
Established in 1997, the museum occupies the former house of Scottish artist Sir George Reid, which later served as regimental headquarters from 1960.
The museum presents the complete narrative of the Gordon Highlanders regiment through exhibitions, including a replica World War I trench and an officers' mess.
Located in west Aberdeen, the museum operates Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00 AM to 4:30 PM with guided tours and multilingual audio guides.
The collection features eleven Victoria Crosses and maintains a Victorian walled garden that serves as both a memorial space and an event venue.

Aberdeen and its region feature a series of sites that testify to several centuries of Scottish history. The city contains religious buildings such as the 14th-century St. Machar Cathedral, cultural institutions like the neoclassical Music Hall from 1822, and the Maritime Museum, as well as green spaces including Duthie Park with its botanical greenhouses. The port, active since the 12th century, remains an important center for maritime industry. A 3.5-kilometer sandy beach borders the North Sea, while the Footdee district retains its 19th-century fishing houses.
