Inverness Museum & Art Gallery sits in the centre of Inverness, close to Castle Wynd, and brings the history and creativity of the Scottish Highlands to life through museum galleries, art exhibitions and a photographic archive. There's a coffee shop, gift shop, and interactive exhibits, with a programme of events and learning resources including a Community Gallery, making it a good stop for visitors of all ages. Please note that a lift is currently out of order and there are steps at the entrance, so it isn't presently step-free. With Inverness station just 0.2 miles away and around 80 places to stay within 5 miles, it's an easy, central addition to a Highlands visit.
