Dumfries Museum and Camera Obscura
A treasure house of history, Dumfries Museum tells the story of the land and people of Dumfries and Galloway.

Look out for fossil footprints left by prehistoric animals, the wildlife of the Solway, tools and weapons of our earliest people, stone carvings by Scotland's first Christians and the everyday things of the Victorian farm, workshop and home. The Camera Obscura, installed in 1836, is on the top floor of the old windmill tower. From it you can see a fascinating panoramic view of Dumfries and the surrounding countryside. A unique experience!
The Camera Obscura is reached by a spiral staircase, please contact them for mobility information.
