About our cause
The West Highland Museum is one of the oldest museums in the Highlands. It was founded in 1922 by a group of local enthusiasts led by Victor Hodgson, who had neither a collection nor a building to display it in.
Victor Hodgson devoted many years to a detailed study of the history and archaeology of the Western Highlands, and In 1922 founded the West Highland Museum at Fort William of which he was secretary. It collected croft house furniture and other artefacts.
In 1925, after several temporary exhibitions and the acquisition of significant collections, the Museum launched a fundraising appeal and, in 1926 purchased the present building, a former branch of the British Linen Bank. Descendants of Victor Hodgson are still involved with the Museum today.
Our Mission is:
“To be a welcoming museum which provides inspiration, learning and enjoyment for all”
To collect, conserve and present a comprehensive range of objects of historical and cultural importance which illustrate the history of the West Highlands in an attractive and informative way.
To make the museum a focal point in Lochaber, a place of which local people can be proud and which offers a valued resource for information and education
To offer local people and visitors not only an enjoyable experience, but also a substantial insight into the history of the West Highlands.
Our community, and its history, mean so much to the West Highland Museum and its staff, volunteers and supporters. We want to provide a much loved and valued service for the community, but we need your help to do this. We are a free, independent museum who need funding and donations to thrive.
Please consider raising funds for us through the Highland Community Lottery and thank you in advance for your support. Good luck!
