Callendar House

Callendar House,Falkirk Information
Situated amidst magnificent park and woodland, Callendar House tells stories spanning 600 years of Scottish history. Through wars, rebellions and the industrial revolution, the house has played host to many great historical figures over the centuries, including Mary, Queen of Scots, Cromwell and Bonnie Prince Charlie.

Unique amongst Scottish museums, our costumed interpreters bring history to life. A series of specially-constructed areas take visitors back in time to the early 19th century, where they can watch our clockmaker, printmaker or grocer at work. In the 1825 Kitchen, visitors can sample authentic Georgian food and listen to stories about life below stairs, as kitchen staff go about their daily tasks.

There is no entry charge to the house, and a visit takes at least 2 hours.
