The Gordon Highlanders Museum immortalizes the battles fought by the renowned line infantry regiment of the British Army. Dating back to 1881, the Gordon Highlanders have a fascinating history that earned them the title of the “finest regiment in the world,” as described by Sir Winston Churchill. Follow the soldiers’ footsteps and learn about their stories through captivating displays and films. The museum is magnificently housed within the former home of the well-known 19th-century Scottish artist Sir George Reid. Enter the stately home, which is defined by its medieval-style pitched roof and turret. Check out the main exhibition situated in the Grant Room. You can trace the historic battles of the Gordon Highlanders on a timeline that stretches from the Napoleonic Wars to service in India, Afghanistan and South Africa.
