    Scotland's Oldest University

    Tucked away in the same street as the castle, this little gem of a museum tells the history of St Andrews University, which was founded in 1413. Interesting displays in all the four galleries, which are all on the ground floor. A roof terrace provides stunning views across St Andrews Bay to the distant Angus hills. Staff have done an excellent job in making the museum accessible to all. Well worth a visit.
