Opened in 1807, this is the oldest public museum in Scotland. The facility is spacious and topped with a specially made roof that lets in plenty of natural light. Part of the University of Glasgow, the gallery showcases several schools of art, including 16th and 17th century paintings, British and French paintings from 1700-1840, Scottish Colourists, and the Whistler Collection. There is also an interesting assortment of Roman coins and a group of dinosaur fossils.
