Kinneil Museum: Now Operated by Historic Environment Scotland
Falkirk Council can confirm as of Friday 12 June 2026, a licence agreement has been finalised and Kinneil Museum has formally transferred to the interim management of Historic Environment Scotland (HES).
The licence agreement provides an interim arrangement that enables Historic Environment Scotland to take over the management of the property while both organisations continue discussions on longer-term arrangements for the site. Any future proposals will be subject to the necessary governance, legal and approval processes being completed by both parties.
The building will remain closed to public until further notice due to essential works taking place, however visitors can continue to enjoy the wider Kinneil Estate and Kinneil House will remain open throughout the summer season, welcoming visitors every Saturday until the end of September.
Further updates will be provided as discussions on the future of the site progress.
For more information or any queries, please contact: ops-enquiries@hes.scot
