The most important collection on this museum,was originary all paintings left to the city by Archibald McLellan.There are also other diferents galleries as:Arms and Armour,Archealogy,Natural History,Art,Sculpture and a few more.
Apart of the museum,the building is also beautiful and is one of favorite buildings for Glasgwegians,really it looks like an european palace and it worth a visit.
Next to the main building ,don't miss a visit to Kelvingrove Park,there is also a very big area for children's playground.

 Kelvingrove Museum - During
Refurbishment 2004 by scotlandscotour
However, if you are in Glasgow, I would still very much recommend you walk out this way, through the Kelvingrove Gardens, then turn right (north) over the bridge and pass the University with its amazingly beautiful stone architecture (like Edinburgh Old Town), and then over to the West End and the Botanical Gardens. Beautiful. Leave a Comment Directions: West End

Re-opened in July 2006, the restoration has turned this museum into a wonderful display of interesting exhibits. A spitfile hangs
precariously from the ceiling whilst Sir Roger the elephant stands out as the elephant shot whilst in musth due to lack of understanding of this male phenomenon in elephants.
Wonderful place for educating children and easily accessible too, by hoping on the sight seeing open top bus.
Wheelchair friendly. Leave a Comment

Visit the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum. It's a lovely building, with lots of interesting stuff inside. There's also a cafe (very nice), a shop and 'Kidspace' where you can leave kids to play around - which is actually pretty good, not just a soft play area, but actually has interesting ideas for children to try out.
The story goes that when this building was built, al those years ago (ok, so I'm not actually sure when!), they accidentally built it back-to-front! The architect was said to be so devastated about it that he committed suicide....... For every person who tells you this story is true, there'll be another one who says it's a load of rubbish, but I always wonder when I'm walking past. See what you think....... Leave a Comment Directions: Just opposite the Kelvin Hall, on Dumbarton Road, just as it forks into Argyle Street and Sauchiehall Street.
