Preserving the rich heritage of Alford and Donside for future generations

Alford Heritage Museum – Aberdeenshire

2025 Summer Season

The museum aims to preserve and share the rural heritage of the North East of Scotland and of the Alford and Donside area in particular. It is housed in the old market building (The Mart), whose sale ring is still intact, and it has an extensive collection of exhibits relating to farming and rural life. Other exciting features of the Museum include the Old Schoolroom, Farmhouse Kitchen, Souter’s Workshop, Tailor’s Shop and Old-style Grocer’s Shop.

We also have a number of games and activities. All this can be found here.
