Queensferry Museum, located at 53 High Street in South Queensferry, is a small but fascinating museum that tells the story of this ancient village and its traditions. From its privileged position, the museum offers a spectacular view of the Firth of Forth and the UNESCO World Heritage site, the Forth Bridge.
The museum's collections explore various aspects of local life, including social history, popular traditions, and civil engineering. One of the most unique traditions is the Burryman ceremony, an ancient custom that takes place every August and which the museum celebrates with a symbolic figure called "Frank." The museum also hosts temporary exhibitions curated by community groups, offering a constantly fresh perspective on local history.
