July 2024Absolutely fantastic art gallery situated in an historic building. The gallery is a mish mash of all different types of art work but all drawn together through the story of humanity and how we evolve. Further to the art is also a brilliant telling if Glasgow's story and it's contribution to the UK and the world in general. There are also sections on wildlife, Vikings and the ancient world. The gallery is free to enter and is very spacious so it never feels crowded. They have also done a great job in making it inclusive and child friendly.

August 2024We loved it!!! You can easily spend a whole day there. There are e so much to see in Kelvingrove Art Gallery and museum and all these for free. So many sectors and so many artifacts, truly amazing! Totally recommend it especially for the paintings of Scottish and Dutch artists you can see there!

September 2024Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum is a fantastic museum full of culture. The building itself is stunning, with its grand architecture and beautifully restored details making it feel like you’re stepping into something special. Inside, there’s a little bit of everything that keep things interesting. You’ll see a little bit of everything there. I loved the stuffed animals that looked so real. There are cafes and gift shops to make the experience more relaxing and comfortable. Definitely a place worth revisiting for another dose of its vibrant mix.

August 2024Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum is an absolute must-visit! The extraordinary collection housed here is both vast and diverse, ranging from fine art masterpieces to fascinating historical artifacts. Each exhibit is thoughtfully curated, offering something for everyone, whether you’re an art lover, history buff, or just curious to explore. The museum itself is beautifully maintained, with every gallery and display space immaculate and well-organized. The building’s stunning architecture adds to the overall experience, making it as much a part of the visit as the collections inside. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, enhancing the experience with their insights. I can’t recommend Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum enough—it’s a cultural treasure that brilliantly showcases the richness of both art and history.

September 2024The building from the outside is a wonderful piece of art in itself. I walked around it taking in all its glorious design. Once inside the splendor continues when you are faced with the pipes of a magnificent organ. If you're lucky, there may be a performance. The galleries are excellent, go take a look. It's an absolute must if you're in Glasgow. I visited the basement cafe, just for coffee. The staff are so friendly and helpful.
