The People's Story Museum
Royal Mile
The People's Story gives an unique insight in to Edinburgh's working class people from the 18th century to the late 20th century.
About
The displays include tableaux, original objects, images and personal stories to reveal their fascinating history of the city.
The collection focuses on the history, culture, crafts and trades, and the people of Edinburgh but also as a place to explore more contemporary issues, events and opinions.
What makes the museum stand out is that all of the displays are based around the words of Edinburgh’s people, taken from oral history reminiscences and written sources to tell real stories. The collections reflect this with objects ranging from Friendly Society regalia, banners and material relating to Edinburgh’s diverse communities.
