Central to this is an original copy of the National Covenant, which was signed and adopted inside Greyfriars Kirk in 1638. This was a crucial development in a turbulent period in Scotland’s history, revolving around religious and civil freedom, and played a central role in the history of Scotland, and the development of Protestantism.
You will also find an oil painting of Greyfriars Bobby, dating from 1867, a King James VI Bible and other texts, and several examples of an early communion plate.
The museum also displays our current work, including our partnerships with the Grassmarket Community Project and the Charteris Centre.
