| The Mull Museum is situated on
the centre of the main street of Tobermory, close to the bank.
It is run by volunteers, most of whom have
extensive local knowledge. Although the museum is only quite
small, it is packed with artefacts of Mull's history. |
 |
| The museum tries to
represent periods of history in themes. To the right is
a display of the working implements used by craftsmen on the
island in the past |
 |
| The image to the
right displays a domestic scene from a 'blackhouse' |
 |
| The display to the
right shows documents about the wreck of a Spanish galleon
wrecked in Tobermory harbour. |
 |
| Not only does the museum
display material from the distant past, it also deals with
episodes of the island's history, like the second world war.
Tobermory was an important naval harbour and Mull saw its fair
share of military action. The Museum gives a taste of this era. |
 |
 |
The Museum also has a wide range of images documents, and
family records in store. Members of the Museum can, by
arrangement, view these resources. However, it must be
emphasised again that this museum is run by volunteers, funds and
time
are limited.
Open during the summer season.
