I had such a great time at Museum on the Mound! It’s not your typical tourist attraction, there were hardly any crowds, and that made it feel very peaceful and personal. The collection of old money and banking history is fascinating, and it’s laid out in a way that’s easy to follow, even if you’re not an expert. There’s also a fun little game you can play during your visit, which I found exciting. Its not every day a museum lets you win something! I’d highly recommend stopping by if you want something off the beaten path that’s still fun, educational, and surprisingly interactive.

I love that it was free to visit. There is a lot of history here and lots to learn. You can see £1million as well as learn lots of History. It is very child friendly with a range of trails. The lady working the desk was very knowledgeable and helped the kids out. Highly recommend a visit.

Entramos de casualidad pues en la puerta ponía que verías 1 millón de libras (jajaja spoiler, no, eran billetes sin valor). Edificio muy bonito con jardín y vistas espectaculares. Es gratis. Si tienes críos está genial, pues es interactivo (abrir una caja fuerte, quiz, sala de pintura...) y te va contando el comienzo del banco hasta hoy. Actualmente del LLoyds, pero al absorber al bank os Scottland, también cuenta la historia de este último. Tardas 30-60 minutos en verlo (depende de cuánto te tires abriendo la caja fuerte). Como siempre, el personal super amables.
