Perth Museum

One of the key highlights of the museum is the **Stone of Destiny** (or Stone of Scone), a significant historical artefact
traditionally used in the coronation of Scottish kings. This stone has a rich history, having been taken to England in the 13th century and returned to Scotland in 1996. The Stone of Destiny symbolises Scotland's national identity and heritage, making it an emblematic piece within the museum's collection.

The new museum not only showcases the Stone of Destiny but also offers insights into its historical context, highlighting its importance in Scottish culture and governance. By combining traditional artefacts with modern exhibition techniques, the museum aims to engage visitors and provide a deeper understanding of Scotland's past.
