Banchory Museum was founded in 1978, being based on a collection of local bygones belonging to a former Provost of Banchory, Mrs Jean Grant. Originally housed in the former Reid and Burnett School in High Street, the Museum moved in 1994 to purpose-built premises in Bridge Street, and is Aberdeenshire Museums Service’s most accessible museum.
Aberdeenshire Museums Service HQ hours are 9am–4.30pm, Monday to Friday. Please telephone in advance if you wish to arrange a visit to see a particular painting. Contact details can be found at http://www.aberdeenshire.gov.uk/museums/
