Kelvingrove Art Gallery

Kelvingrove holds one of the finest civic art collections in Europe, with works by Rembrandt, Monet and Salvador Dalí. You'll also find a Spitfire hanging from the ceiling, a full Egyptian mummy exhibit, and free daily organ recitals. Entry is free.

The highlights are Salvador Dalí's 'Christ of Saint John of the Cross', the Spitfire suspended from the main hall ceiling, the Egyptian mummies, and the extensive Scottish art collection. The daily organ recitals are a much-loved Glasgow tradition.

With more than 8,000 objects, the collection is considered priceless. The building itself cost £250,000 to construct when it opened in 1901, the equivalent of over £30 million today.

The organ was built into the original 1901 design, since the gallery was always meant to be a cultural as well as an artistic space. Free recitals have been part of the experience since it opened, and they still run daily.
