Stewartry Museum, Regional history museum in Kirkcudbright, Scotland.

The Stewartry Museum holds collections focusing on human and natural history of the eastern Galloway region within a Victorian-era building.

The museum opened its doors in 1893 after the initial collection, established in 1879, required a dedicated purpose-built structure.

The museum exhibits works by local Kirkcudbrightshire artists and contains artifacts representing social life from the 18th and 19th centuries.

Between April and September, visitors can explore the museum Monday through Saturday from 10:00 to 16:00 and Sundays from 13:00 to 16:00.

The museum houses the Siller Gun, which stands as the earliest existing sports trophy in Britain and tells the story of local competitions.
