Come and see us throughout the October half term break for medieval themed self- guided activities in Museum on the Mound. Try your hand at a board game first played over 600 years ago, see how quickly you can work out the price of your shopping list in the 1130s, and have a go at making a coin just as it would have been made at the time of King David 1st of Scotland. This is also a chance to try out our King David Discovery trail, as well as many other activities available in the museum.
