Set in a building which grew between the 16th and 18th centuries, and which at one point was home to some 250 people, the Museum of Edinburgh houses many important artefacts of local history and culture, like the original National Covenant, signed in 1638. There are also James Craig's plans for the New Town, collections of Edinburgh glass and silver, Scottish pottery and other important objects and images, not the least of which being Greyfriars Bobby's collar and bowl! There are also some temporary exhibitions throughout the year.
