The McManus: Dundee's Art Gallery & Museum

The McManus: Dundee's Art Gallery & Museum, Victorian Gothic museum in Dundee, Scotland.

The McManus contains eight gallery spaces spread across two floors, displaying collections of fine art, natural history, and local heritage artifacts.

Originally commissioned as a memorial to Prince Albert in 1867, the building underwent a major renovation in 2010 following a £7.8 million investment.

The permanent collection spans 400 million years of history through exhibitions that document Dundee's transformation from early settlement to modern city.

Located at Albert Square, Meadowside, the museum offers free admission, with opening hours from Monday to Saturday 10-5 and Sunday 12:30-4:30.

The foundation of the building rests on what was once Quaw Bog wetland, requiring concrete reinforcement piles to stabilize the structure.
