Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum
Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, opening in 1901, now one of Scotland's supremely popular tourist free attractions, provides 22 themed, ultramodern galleries exhibiting a shocking 8000 objects.
Kelvingrove Museum houses world-famous collections that are immense, broad-ranging and globally important. They include from arms and armor, natural history, art from several eras of history to art movements.
The most renowned painting shown at Kelvingrove happens to be the Salvador Dali crowning artwork ‘Christ of St John of the Cross’. Another major attraction is Sir Roger the Asian elephant. In addition, a Spitfire plane hangs from the west court's ceiling.
The refurbished museum itself is a worthy attraction and invites families, for its exhibits have been arranged with kids in mind. Besides all the displays, Kelvingrove makes it easy to spend the whole day there with a restaurant, a pleasant café, and even a gift shop.
