The Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery at the University of Glasgow is Scotland’s oldest public museum.
Established in 1807, following the bequest of the collections of the eminent Scottish physician and obstetrician, William Hunter (1718-1783), it is home to one of the top five collections in Scotland with over a million items ranging from meteorites to mummies as well as major collections by Charles Rennie Mackintosh, James McNeill Whistler, the Glasgow Boys and Scottish Colourists.
