More about

The Discovery Centre was opened as the central stores and workshops complex for Aberdeenshire Museums Service in 2005. The building acts as the Service's HQ and is the base for many of the Service's education activities. Most of the Service's fine art collection is housed here and visitors can take part in tours of the building to see the reserve collections.
